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

backgroundOutdoor workers are occupationally exposed to significantly higher ultraviolet (UV) doses than the rest of the population. Recent data show a doubling of basal cell carcinoma (BCC) risk in outdoor workers with high occupational UV exposure.

objectivesTo examine the stability and robustness of BCC risk estimators.

methodsSensitivity analyses to test model assumptions considering socioeconomic status, influence of matching procedure, gender and latency, regional differences (east/west), urban/rural cases/controls, and dual diagnoses (squamous cell carcinoma [SCC]/actinic keratoses grade III [AKIII]/Bowen disease [BD] and BCC) were performed.

resultsBCC risk was consistently higher for high occupationally UV-exposed individuals than for intermediate UV-exposed individuals, regardless of matching procedure, latency, regional differences (east/west), urban/rural recruitment of cases/controls, and dual diagnoses (SCC/AKIII/BD and BCC), sex, and socioeconomic status.

conclusionThe risk estimator for the association between exposure to solar UV radiation at work and the risk of developing BCC showed a high degree of stability and robustness for all variables investigated. The analyses support the recently published findings on the doubling of BCC risk in outdoor workers with high occupational UV exposure.
