Hospitalization, mortality, and health service delivery pattern among Iranian Hajj pilgrims by age, sex, and province in 2013-22.

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: This study aims to investigate the patterns of hospitalization, mortality, and services provided to Iranian Hajj pilgrims from 2013 to 2022 by age, sex, and province. Methods: We conducted a pooled cross-sectional study in 2023, encompassing all Iranian Hajj pilgrims from 2013 to 2022. We examined pilgrim hospitalization by age, sex, and province using a Poisson regression model, incorporating demographic variables. Data extraction was performed using file reading methods, and analysis using Excel 2019 and SPSS 27 software. Results: The highest mortality among Iranian pilgrims was recorded in 2015 ( Conclusions: Tackling the public health challenges associated with mass gatherings is crucial for protecting the health of attendees and ensuring the safety of communities. Effective strategic planning, focused interventions, and strong health surveillance systems are essential to reduce risks and build resilience for future events.
