Lung cancer in Basrah, Iraq during 2005-2012. Incidence and time trend.
Article in Saudi medical journal, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
objectivesTo study the incidence rate of lung cancer and its time trend in Basrah during 2005-2012.
methodsThis was a cancer registry-based retrospective study including all Basrah inhabitant patients diagnosed with primary lung cancer during the period from January 2005 to December 2012. The crude incidence rate was calculated in addition to the age standardized incidence rate (ASIR)/100,000 using the world standard population. Results: Out of 746 registered cases of lung cancer in Basrah, 75.9% were males and 24.1% were females with a male: female gender ratio of 3.1:1. The crude incidence rate was 3.93/100,000 (5.89/100,000 for males and 1.93/100,000 for females). The ASIR was 8.25/100,000 (13.30/100,000 for males and 4.08/100,000 for females). The time trend showed a decrease in incidence rate in the last 2 years (2011 and 2012) compared with the preceding years.
conclusionThe incidence rate of lung cancer in Basrah did not differ greatly from that reported for some Arab and neighboring countries. No definite time trend could be identified apart from a tendency for the incidence rate to decline in 2011 and 2012.
