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 analyze the temporal trend of cancer incidence and mortality among children and adolescents residing in Mato Grosso during the period 2001-2018.
methodsThis was a time series study of cancer incidence and mortality rates among children and adolescents aged 0-19 years residing in Mato Grosso. Joinpoint regression was used to estimate the annual percentage changes (APC) and 95% confidence intervals (95%CI).
resultsA total of 1,915 new cases and 796 deaths were recorded, with leukemias being the most common (30.23% of cases and 34.92% of deaths) for the 15-19 age group (28.25% of cases and 30.78% of deaths), among individuals of Brown race/skin color (45.17% of cases and 50.75% of deaths), and males (53.89% of cases and 56.53% of deaths). Incidence rates showed a decreasing trend for leukemias between 2001 and 2010 (APC -5.5%; 95%CI -8.3; -2.6) and soft tissue sarcomas (APC -7.3%; 95%CI -10.6; -3.8) during the period 2001-2018, as well as for all causes between 2001 and 2016 (APC -1.1%; 95%CI -2.0; -0.2). Mortality rates remained stable throughout the period and for all types of cancer.
conclusionAlthough stable, the rates in Mato Grosso are high, which calls for strategies to promote access to early diagnosis and timely, appropriate treatment, such as expanding the network of specialized services, improving the quality of these services, and updating the data.
