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

objectiveTo determine the incidence of gliomas in Zenica - Doboj Canton. Moreover, to analyse its potential connection to sociodemographic characteristics and its distribution throughout municipalities of Zenica - Doboj Canton in the period of 2009-2019.

methodThis retrospective, descriptive - analytical, 10 - year study included 146 patients from Zenica -Doboj Canton. Data were obtained and reviewed from patient's medical records. Patients' sociodemographic characteristics and pathohistological diagnosis were included in the study. Age, gender, and the place of birth were analysed and correlated with types and grades of glial tumors according to the World Health Organisation's latest classification.

resultsThe study consisted of 146 patients including 84 (58%) males and 62 (42%) females. The most common pathohistological diagnosis was glioblastoma multiforme, a grade IV glioma in both females (26%) and males (35%), in total 91 (62%) patients, and the rarest was oligoastrocytoma, in 2 (1%) cases. The municipality of Kakanj had the highest incidence of glioma with 29 out of total of 146 cases (0.077%) and the highest incidence in females (0.069%) with 13 cases. The municipality of Vareš had the highest incidence of glioma (0.114%) with 5 out of 84 male cases, while in the cities of Breza and Olovo any cases with glioma were not detected The results showed statistically significant differences in incidences of gliomas according to the region of residence.

conclusionThe analysis of data indicated that there are significant connections between the occurrence of gliomas and sociodemographic characteristics of patients from Zenica - Doboj Canton.
