Prevalence of Noncommunicable Diseases in Japan Using a Newly Developed Administrative Claims Database Covering Young, Middle-aged, and Elderly People.
Article in JMA journal, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 83 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
Introduction: Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) are an ongoing public health problem globally. The present study aimed to estimate the prevalence of NCDs in Japan using a newly developed, commercially available administrative claims database covering young, middle-aged, and elderly people. Methods: We compared the age-stratified population distribution between the DeSC administrative claims database and the population estimates. We calculated the 1 year prevalence of several NCDs using the DeSC database and compared the prevalence of diabetes mellitus and hypertension between the DeSC database and the Japan National Health and Nutrition Survey. Results: The age distribution of the population included in the DeSC database was similar to that of the population estimates. The estimated prevalence rates were as follows: diabetes mellitus (12.2%), hypertension (20.9%), ischemic heart disease (5.6%), heart failure (5.3%), cerebral infarction (3.4%), stroke (3.7%), gastric cancer (0.6%), colorectal cancer (0.8%), breast cancer (1.5%), prostate cancer (0.6%), cataract (7.1%), depression (3.5%), and osteoporosis (6.3%). The estimated prevalence of diabetes and hypertension was comparable with that of the National Health and Nutrition Survey. Conclusions: The distribution of age and sex in the database was comparable with that of the population estimates. The prevalence of diabetes mellitus and hypertension was comparable with that in a previously reported national survey. Our data can be utilized as basic information for policymaking in clinical medicine and public health in Japan.
