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

objectivesThe aim of this study was to explore the characteristics of digestive organ cancer mortality and the potential years of life lost in Inner Mongolia, and to provide evidence for the prevention of digestive organ cancers.

methodsUsing data from the Death Registry System from 2009 to 2012, we classified male and female cancer deaths according to the International Classification of Disease (10th revision). The mortality and potential years of life lost were calculated for digestive organ cancers in Inner Mongolia. The average years of life lost was calculated.

resultsDigestive organ cancer mortality in Inner Mongolia was higher in men than in women. The potential years of life lost were also much higher in men than in women. Gallbladder cancer, pancreatic cancer, and colorectal, anus, and anal canal cancer were the most prominent contributors to mortality. Esophageal cancer was the most prominent contributor to potential years of life lost, and was the leading cause of average years of life lost in both sexes.

conclusionLiver cancer and stomach cancer mortality and the potential years of life lost to liver and stomach cancer are demonstrably higher in Inner Mongolia. Although esophageal cancer mortality was not the highest of the digestive organ cancers, the average years of life lost to esophageal was the highest for both sexes, and it should therefore be targeted for prevention.
