Bilateral multifocal lower extremity localized soft tissue amyloidomas: case report with ultrasonographic characterization.
Article in Skeletal radiology, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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 may be acquired or hereditary and consists of multiple disease processes characterized by the abnormal deposition of extracellular fibrillary protein aggregates. The presentation of amyloidosis is varied, ranging from an isolated, focal deposition to systemic disease. While systemic involvement is common, a rare entity known as amyloidoma or tumor amyloidosis may also occur. The 75-year-old female in this case presented with slowly growing multifocal bilateral lower extremity masses and was ultimately diagnosed with localized amyloidomas in the absence of chronic illness or systemic disease. This case report includes a description of the sonographic features of localized extremity amyloidoma that, to the best of our knowledge, have not yet been described in the literature. Awareness of the sonographic features, and this unique presentation of multifocal soft tissue extremity amyloidomas will allow for this rare diagnosis to be included in a limited differential diagnosis.
