The Population Cancer Assessment and Surveillance Engine (PopCASE): An Emerging Population Cancer Data Platform.
Article in Journal of registry management, 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
Spatially linking cancer registry records to information describing the communities where patients live can enhance the utility of registry data. Here, we describe the ongoing development of an application, the Population Cancer Assessment and Surveillance Engine (PopCASE), that will allow central cancer registries or their designees to set up a population cancer data platform linking a registry's data with community data. PopCASE links registry records by patient residential address to demographic, socioeconomic, household, transportation, healthcare access, screening, risk factor, and other community metrics. Users can query the data by demographic, geographic, or disease criteria via a user interface and receive results, including case counts, age-adjusted incidence and mortality, stage at diagnosis, time-to-treatment, and dozens of community measures stratified by county, census place ("municipality"), zip code tabulation area (ZCTA), and census tract. PopCASE may also be used to create patient-level linked research data sets. We anticipate two likely implementation scenarios: 1) a cancer center where a research team with appropriate institutional review board (IRB) approval uses an instance of PopCASE for their catchment-level population cancer research in a secure data environment, and 2) a central cancer registry that hosts their own secure instance of PopCASE.
