IRAN National Cancer Control Program (IrNCCP): Goals, Strategies, and Programs.
Article in Medical journal of the Islamic Republic of Iran, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Background: Annually, over 131000 new cases of cancer have been identified in Iran, with an increasing trend that is predicted to grow by 40% by 2025. The most important contributing factors to this increase are the improvement of the health service delivery system, increased life expectancy, and the aging of the population. The aim of this study was to develop Iran's "National Cancer Control Program" (IrNCCP). Methods: The present study is a cross-sectional study that was conducted in 2013 using the method of reviewing studies and documents and focused group discussions and a panel of experts. In this study, the available evidence related to cancer status and its care in Iran and other countries, as well as national and international upstream documents, were reviewed and analyzed. Then, by analyzing the current situation in Iran and other countries and conducting stakeholder analysis with the strategic planning approach, the IrNCCP was developed with a 12-year horizon consisting of goals, strategies, programs, and performance indicators. Results: This program has 4 main components, including Prevention, Early Detection, Diagnosis and Treatment, and Supportive and Palliative care, as well as 7 supporting components including Governance and policy-making, Cancer Research, Developing facilities, equipment, and service delivery network, Providing and managing human resources, Providing and managing financial resources, Cancer information system management and registry, and Participation of NGOs, charities, and the private sector. Conclusion: Iran's National Cancer Control Program has been developed comprehensively with cross-sectoral cooperation and stakeholder participation. However, like any long-term health intervention, strengthening its governance structure both in terms of implementation and achievement of expected goals and evaluation and modification during the implementation of the program is essential.
