Wild-type ATTR amyloidosis of the ureter in a 56-year-old woman with rheumatoid arthritis and Sjögren's syndrome.

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
We present a case of acute pyelonephritis with right hydronephrosis in a middle-aged woman, who had suffered from rheumatoid arthritis and Sjögren's syndrome. She had successfully treated with antibiotics, however, ureteral stenosis sustained. She underwent ureteroscopy and stenting of right ureter. Biopsy specimen revealed submucosal amyloid deposition in the interstitium overlying a benign urothelium. Amyloid protein was positive for transthyretin (TTR) by immunohistochemistry and amyloid deposition was not demonstrated in other organs. The patient's TTR genes were wild type and she was diagnosed with wild-type ATTR (ATTR wt) amyloidosis. This is the first report about symptomatic ATTR wt amyloidosis, which was also called 'systemic senile amyloidosis (SSA)' in the ureter. We should aware that SSA can occur at younger age and cause symptomatic ureteral stenosis. Further investigation is needed to clarify the association of autoimmune diseases to develop ATTR wt amyloidosis.
