Temporal trends in cause-specific mortality in a rural-provincial area of Denmark, Lolland-Falster, 1970-2018.

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
aimIn Denmark, rural-provincial Lolland-Falster currently has the highest mortality, caused mainly by the high mortality of in-migrating people. To identify possible preventive measures to combat this excess mortality insight into the underlying diseases is needed.
methodsWe used data from Danish registers to calculate cause-specific mortality for 1970-1979, 1980-1989, 1990-1999, 2000-2009 and 2010-2018 divided into cancer, cardiovascular diseases, respiratory diseases, external causes and other causes (all remaining causes). We calculated age-standardised mortality rates for Lolland-Falster and the rest of Denmark: mortality rate ratios and excess number of deaths per 100,000 person-years for Lolland-Falster distinguishing between long-term residents (10+ years) and in-migrants.
resultsIn 1970-1979, the age-standardised mortality rates for Lolland-Falster resembled those for rest of Denmark. Over time, age-standardised mortality rates for cardiovascular diseases decreased but more so for the rest of Denmark than for Lolland-Falster. Age-standardised mortality rates for other diseases increased but more so for Lolland-Falster than for the rest of Denmark. The excess mortality in Lolland-Falster derived in particular from in-migrants: in 2010-2018 the mortality rate ratios for this population reached 2.29 (95% confidence interval 1.96-2.69) for external causes and 2.12 (95% confidence interval 1.97-2.29) for other diseases. In-migrants had in total 411 excess deaths per 100,000 person-years. Of these 27% came from tobacco smoking-related causes of death. However, another 25% came from ill-defined, unspecified and a broad range of other, minor causes of deaths.
