Analysis of tracheal, bronchial, and lung cancer trends in 204 countries from 1990 to 2021 and the impact of COVID-19.
Article in Respiratory research, 2025. 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
backgroundThe influence of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (Covid-19) on the disease burden of tracheal, bronchus, and lung cancer (TBL) has yet to be explored.
methodsData on the TBL burden for 204 countries and regions was collected annually from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021, covering the years 1990 to 2021.
resultsGlobally, the disease burden of TBL demonstrates a downward trend. However, during the COVID-19 pandemic, a slight increase in the burden of TBL was observed, particularly in high sociodemographic index (SDI) region. The burden of TBL remains higher in males than females, but is decreasing less rapidly in females than in males. The TBL death rate was particularly marked among those aged over 90 years. Globally, the disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) attributable to TBL were chiefly linked to smoking (59.50%), ambient particulate matter pollution (15%), occupational risks (13.20%), and secondhand smoke (5.10%) in 2021.
conclusionsThe burden of TBL has decreased significantly, while a increase in the burden of TBL was noted during the period of COVID-19 epidemic, particularly in SDI region. Policymakers urgently need to establish protective measures for cancer patients, ensuring they receive necessary care when the next global pandemic strikes.
