Causes of Cancer in the World: Comparative Risk Assessment of Nine Behavioral and Environmental Risk Factors.
Review in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Cited by 8 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
Some malignancies have very few technologies available for screening, and advancements in cancer therapy have not been as effective in lowering death as those for other chronic diseases. The major method for decreasing cancer incidence is primary avoidance through dietary and environmental changes. The potentially reversible risk factors were projected to be responsible for cancer-related mortality worldwide. Of these fatalities, many of the cases occurred in high-income nations, whereas very few cases did so in low- and middle-income countries. Risk factors in Europe and Central Asia were responsible for the majority of cancer mortality in low- and middle-income regions. Smoking, drinking alcohol, and eating few fruits and vegetables were some of the primary factors that contributed to cancer mortality both globally and in low- and middle-income countries. In high-income countries, alcohol consumption, smoking, and obesity were the main cancer-causing factors. The sexual transmission of the human papillomavirus is one of the leading risk factors for cervical cancer in women in low- and middle-income countries.
