Clinical profiles and trend analysis of newly diagnosed lung cancer in a tertiary care hospital of East China during 2011-2015.

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
backgroundMore than one-third of lung cancer worldwide occurring in China. However, the clinical profiles of lung cancer patients in the mainland of China are rarely reported and largely unknown. The objective of this study is to analyze the characteristics and time trends of newly diagnosed lung cancer cases during the past 5 years in East China.
methodsThe data came from an academic tertiary care hospital of East China. Patients who were newly diagnosed as lung cancer from 2011 to 2015 were enrolled. All new cases got pathological supports by lung biopsy or surgery. Tumor staging was performed according to the seventh edition of the tumor node metastasis (TNM) classification of malignant tumors. The patients' disease information was collected from the database of the hospital information system (HIS).
resultsFrom 2011 to 2015, aggregately 5,779 patients, including 3,719 males and 2,060 females, were diagnosed as lung cancer. The major histologic subtypes of lung cancer were adenocarcinoma (ADC, 60.0%), squamous cell carcinoma (SCC, 25.6%), small cell lung cancer (SCLC, 8.5%), large cell carcinoma (0.6%), adenosquamous carcinoma (1%), other non-small cell carcinoma (1.6%) and unclassified or rare carcinoma (2.8%). ADC proportion of female was much higher than that of male. A higher proportion of advanced stage (stage IIIB, IV) of lung cancer existed in patients who were admitted to hospital due to respiratory or cancer related symptoms (RCRS) than those without RCRS. Smoking rate in male patients reached 80.2%, while it was only 2.7% in females. EGFR mutation existed in 66% of female and 37% of male patients with ADC.
conclusionsThis study demonstrates the clinicopathologic characteristics of lung cancer patients from East China, including histologic composition, staging proportion, smoking prevalence and gene mutation status. During the past 5 years, the proportion of ADC has increased gradually whereas SCC decreased.
