Trend of incidence rate of age-related diseases: results from the National Health Insurance Service-National Sample Cohort (NHIS-NSC) database in Korea: a cross- sectional study.
Article in BMC geriatrics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
backgroundThis study aimed to identify and select age-related diseases (ARDs) in Korea, which is about to have a super-aged society, and to elucidate patterns in their incidence rates.
methodsThe National Health Insurance Service-National Sample Cohort, comprising 1 million health insurance and medical benefit beneficiaries in Korea from 2002 to 2019, was utilized. We selected 14 diseases with high disease burden and prevalence among Koreans from the 92 diseases defined in the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study as ARDs. The annual incidence rate represented the number of patients newly diagnosed with an ARD each year from 2006 to 2019, excluding those with a history of ARD diagnosis from 2002 to 2005. The incidence rate by age was categorized into 10-year units based on age as of 2019. The number of patients with ARDs in each age group was used as the numerator, and the incidence rate for each age group was calculated with the age group as the denominator.
resultsRegarding the annual incidence rates of ARDs from 2006 to 2019, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, congestive heart failure, and ischemic heart disease decreased annually, whereas dyslipidemia, chronic kidney disease, cataracts, hearing loss, and Parkinson's disease showed a significant increase. Hypertension, diabetes, cerebrovascular disease, osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, and age-related macular degeneration initially displayed a gradual decrease in incidence but exhibited a tendency to increase after 2015. Concerning age-specific incidence rates of ARDs, two types of curves emerged. The first type, characterized by an exponential increase with age, was exemplified by congestive heart failure. The second type, marked by an exponential increase peaking between ages 60 and 80, followed by stability or decrease, was observed in 13 ARDs, excluding congestive heart failure. However, hypertension, ischemic heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and hearing loss in men belonged to the first type.
conclusionsFrom an epidemiological perspective, there are similar characteristics in age-specific ARDs that increase with age, reaching a peak followed by a plateau or decrease in Koreans.
