Scrotal Cancer Incidence Rates and Trends-United States, 1999-2020.
Article in Urology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveTo examine population-level scrotal cancer incidence rates and trends among adult men in the United States.
methodsData from the United States Cancer Statistics, covering approximately 96% of the United States population, were analyzed to calculate age-standardized incidence rates of scrotal cancer among men aged 18 years and older from 1999 to 2020. Trends in incidence rates were evaluated by age, race and ethnicity, Census region, and histology using joinpoint regression.
resultsOverall, 4669 men were diagnosed with scrotal cancer (0.20 per 100,000). Incidence rates were highest among men aged 70 years and older (0.82 per 100,000). Rates were higher among non-Hispanic Asian or Pacific Islander men (0.31 per 100,000) compared to other race and ethnicity groups. The most common histologic subtypes were squamous cell carcinoma (35.9%), extramammary Paget disease (20.8%), and sarcoma (20.5%). Incidence rates decreased by 2.9% per year from 1999 to 2019 for non-Hispanic Asian or Pacific Islander men, decreased by 8.1% per year from 1999 to 2006 for basal cell carcinomas, and increased by 1.8% per year from 1999 to 2019 for extramammary Paget disease; otherwise, rates remained stable for all other variables examined.
conclusionWhile scrotal cancer incidence rates were higher than previously reported, rates were still low and stable over time.
