Hypoadrenal syndrome in a patient with amyloidosis secondary to familial Mediterranean fever.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Amyloidosis is a common complication of poorly controlled familial Mediterranean fever (FMF). A variety of organs including kidneys, heart, liver, thyroid and adrenal glands may be clinically affected. However, involvement of adrenal glands leading to significant inefficiency is rarely seen in FMF patients with amyloidosis. The impairment of neuroendocrine immune system in FMF together with proteinuria in renal amyloidosis is a challenge while interpreting adrenal function tests. Here we present a case report of a 42-year-old man with FMF and renal failure due to amyloidosis whose disease course was complicated by adrenal insufficiency.
