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

Epidemiological features of esophageal cancer (EC), as well as their associations withpotential influencing factors in a city, have seldom been seldom explored on a fine scale. The ECdeath cases in Guangzhou city during 2012-2017 were collected to describe the epidemiologicalcharacteristics such as EC mortality rate (ECMR) and health-seeking behaviors of deaths. Potentialinfluencing factors, including socioeconomic conditions (population density, gross domesticproduct density), medical resources, and ageing degree were also gathered for exploring theirrelationships with the epidemiological characteristics of EC. A total of 2,409 EC deaths werereported during 2012-2017 in Guangzhou with an age-standardized ECMR of 3.18/105. Theprevalence of EC in Guangzhou was spatially featured and was divided into three regions withobvious differentiated ECMR (ECMR of 6.41/105 in region A, ECMR of 5.51/105 in region B, ECMRof 2.56/105 in region C). The street/town-level ECMR was spatially clustered in Guangzhou city,especially two clusters of streets/towns with high ECMR were highlighted in region A and Brespectively. Meanwhile, demographic features including gender gap, death age, temporal intervalbetween diagnosis and death, health-seeking behaviors were remarkably different among the threeregions. Moreover, health-seeking behaviors (e.g., the proportion of hospital deaths) of the ECdeaths were obviously influenced by medical institution occupancy rate and socioeconomicconditions at street/town level. In addition, the street/town-level ECMR was significantly associatedwith ageing degree across Guangzhou city (r = 0.466,
