1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

introductionEnvironment and Paediatric Cancer (PC) in the Region of Murcia (RM) is an on-going research project that has the following aims: to collect a careful paediatric environmental history (PEH) and to use geographical information systems (GIS) to map the incidence and analyze the geographic distribution of the PC incidence in the RM. The objectives are to present the methodology used for the collection and processing of data and disseminate initial results on the spatial and temporal incidence of PC in the RM (Spain). MATERIAL AND

methodsA descriptive and georeference study of all PC cases under 15 years, diagnosed from 1 January 1998 to December 31, 2009. Three postal addresses were assigned to each case, residence during pregnancy, postnatal, and at the time of diagnosis. Other variables such as sex, date of birth, date of diagnosis, and histopathology classification were collected.

resultsNo increase was observed in the trend of incidence of PC. The crude annual incidence rate was 14.3 cases per 100,000 children under 15 years. The standardised incidence ratio was higher in the north-west of the RM. Before diagnosis, 30% of cases had a different postal address than during the pregnancy.

conclusionsIntegrating the spatial and temporal information through the PEH in a GIS should allow the identification and study of space-time clusters through an environmental monitoring system in order to know the importance of associated risk factors.
