Effect Modification by Cofactors in the Impact of Body Mass Index Change on the Risk of Lung Cancer.
Article in Cancer science, 2026. 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
While baseline body mass index (BMI) has been inversely associated with lung cancer risk, the impact of BMI change remains unclear. Furthermore, stratified analysis by menopausal status and age has not been explored. Cancer-free participants who completed National Health Examinations in 2010 and again in 2014 were included (n = 3,822,171; follow-up through 2021). BMI was measured at both time points, and changes were categorized. We modeled competing-risk outcomes using the Fine-Gray approach to obtain adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI). During follow-up, 43,704 lung cancer cases occurred.
