Pediatric Cancers among Alaska Native People.
Article in The Journal of pediatrics, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectiveTo evaluate the descriptive epidemiology of pediatric cancers among Alaska Native people. STUDY
designWe used data from the Alaska Native Tumor Registry, a population-based registry capturing cancer information among Alaska Native people 1969-present. Specifically, we examined all cases of cancer diagnosed among individuals ages 0-19 years. Cases were classified according to the International Classification of Childhood Cancers, 3rd edition (ICCC-3). We estimated incidence and distribution of cases by ICCC-3 cancer site, comparing between the time periods 1969-1996 and 1997-2016. We assessed 12-month and 5-year cause-specific survival, and examined differences over the time period, adjusted for age, sex, and ICCC-3 site.
resultsIncidence rates of pediatric cancers increased between 1969 and 1996 (n = 134) and 1997 and 2016 (n = 186) among Alaska Native people, from 139.8 in 1 000 000 (95% CI, 116.99-165.7) to 197.54 in 1 000 000 (95% CI, 170.1-228.1). Distribution of ICCC-3 sites differed between time periods (P < .0001). Finally, cancer survival was high; the 12-month survival probability from all ICCC-3 sites combined was 0.88 (95% CI, 0.84-0.92) and the 5-year survival probability was 0.76 (95% CI, 0.70-0.81) for 1969-2016. After adjusting for age, sex, and ICCC-3 site, we observed a 57% decrease in the risk of death when comparing Alaska Native pediatric cancer cases diagnosed in 1997-2016 with those diagnosed in 1969-1996.
conclusionsThis information will be of value for our understanding of pediatric cancers among Indigenous peoples of the US, and will also be informative for clinicians providing care to this population.
