The crucial role of age and site in incidence and prognosis of female neuroendocrine neoplasms in the United States: a population-based study from 2000 to 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
backgroundAs the incidence continues to rise, global concern about neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) is mounting. However, little is known about how NENs affect women patients.
methodsThe annual percentage change (APC) was calculated to describe the incidence. Cox proportional hazards multivariable regression was used to identify risk factors. The nomograms were employed to estimate prognosis.
resultsA total of 39,237 female NENs (fNENs) cases were identified. The incidence of fNENs increased annually (APC = 4.5, 95% CI 4.1-4.8, P < 0.05), and the incidence pattern and survival outcomes showed age and site-specificity. Appendiceal, rectal, and pulmonary fNENs were major contributors to the incidence of patients younger than 40, between 40-59, and over 60 years old, respectively. The Cox proportional hazards regression model revealed that age, tumor size, grade, stage, and primary sites were closely related to survival. The worst survival outcomes appeared in breast, reproductive system, and liver fNENs for patients under 40, between 40-49, and over 50 years old, respectively. A nomogram based on these developed with higher predictive accuracy of prognosis, with a C index of 0.906 in the training cohort and 0.901 in the validation cohort.
conclusionsOur findings revealed distinct site-specific tendencies in the incidence and survival patterns among fNEN patients across various age groups. Thus, reasonable patient screening and stratification strategies should be implemented, especially for young patients.
