Investigating Trends of Incidence Rates of Esophageal Cancer Divided by Squamous Cell Carcinoma and Adenocarcinoma in Southern Iran: a 10-Year Experience.
Article in Journal of gastrointestinal cancer, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 3 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
backgroundGastrointestinal cancers account for a significant number of deaths and new cancer cases worldwide. Our aim is to investigate stratum-specific incidence trends of esophageal cancer in southern Iran considering age, gender, and morphological (adenocarcinoma/squamous cell carcinoma) subtypes.
methodWe used data on esophageal cancer incidence in the catchment area of Shiraz Population-Based Cancer Registry. New cancer cases with ICD-O-3 codes of C15.0 to C15.9 were retrieved and prepared. New annual cases were counted for categories defied based on age group, gender, and morphology. Average annual percentage change (AAPC) and its 95% CI was estimated for each trend using joinpoint regression.
resultsThe total number of esophageal cancer was higher in males than females. It is an increasing rate in esophageal adenocarcinoma in females and this increase was more prominent in older ages. Also, our study showed that SCC has a decreasing trend in females and a steady trend in males. DISCUSSION: Taken together, the increasing trend in adenocarcinoma in females in our study can be related to the increasing rate of obesity and smoking in females in recent years in our region. The incidence trend of different morphologic types of esophageal cancer is changing. This can be a consequence of alterations in the incidence trend of different risk factors. It is necessary to conduct more studies evaluating these risk factors.
