Socioeconomic status and global variations in the incidence of neuroblastoma: call for support of population-based cancer registries in low-middle-income countries.
Article in Pediatric blood & cancer, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers.
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.
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
Global variations in the incidence of pediatric cancers have been described; however, the causes of such differences are not known. We investigated the relationship between the incidence of embryonal tumors and human development index on a global scale. Increasing incidence of neuroblastoma correlates significantly with an increasing index of human development, with greater incidence among countries with high socioeconomic development, in apparent contrast to the incidence of retinoblastoma. While more data are needed to corroborate this observation, our findings suggest new avenues for etiological research and serve as a call for support of population-based cancer registries in low-middle-income countries.
