Comorbidity Risk Score in Association with Cancer Incidence: Results from a Cancer Screenee Cohort.
Article in Cancers, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The combined effects of comorbidities can cause cancer incidence, while the effects of individual conditions, alone, might not. This study was conducted to investigate the joint impact of comorbidities on cancer incidence. The dietary score for energy-adjusted intake was calculated by applying a Gaussian graphical model and was then categorized into tertiles representing light, normal, and heavy eating behaviors. The risk point for cancer, according to the statuses of blood pressure, total cholesterol, fasting glucose, and glomerular filtration rate was computed from a Cox proportional hazard model adjusted for demographics and eating behavior. The comorbidity risk score was defined as the sum of the risk points for four comorbidity markers. We finally quantified the hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the association between the strata of the comorbidity risk score and cancer incidence. A total of 13,644 subjects were recruited from the Cancer Screenee Cohort from 2007-2014. The comorbidity risk score was associated with cancer incidence in a dose-dependent manner (HR = 2.15, 95% CI = 1.39, 3.31 for those scoring 16-30 vs. those scoring 0-8,
