Histopathological Patterns of Lung Cancer in Iran: A Single-Center Study.
Article in Archives of Iranian medicine, 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
backgroundLung cancer (LC) is one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide. In Iran, it is the second most common cause of cancer-related deaths for men and the third most common for women. This study aimed to examine the clinicopathological characteristics of Iranian patients with LC.
methodsClinicopathological data of 1382 patients with primary LC diagnosed over 11 years (2012‒2023) at the "National Institute of Tuberculosis and Lung Disease" (NRITLD), Tehran, Iran, were retrospectively reviewed.
resultsAdenocarcinoma was the most common type of cancer found in the patients (42.44%). The median age was 59.69 years (mean: 60.41 years) ranging 24-88 years. The mean male-to-female ratio was 3.65. Additionally, 65.84% of patients were smokers. The majority of patients (82.69 %) were diagnosed at an advanced stage (stage IV) of cancer.
conclusionAlthough some of our findings are consistent with those of previous LC studies, there are some discrepancies, especially concerning the smoking status and median age of the Iranian patients. Therefore, additional clinical and epidemiological studies are needed to determine the impact of non-smoking factors, such as environmental exposure and genetic predisposition, on the development of LC.
