A case of multiple myeloma initially presenting as hematemesis.

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
A few cases of multiple myeloma with gastrointestinal bleeding have been reported, but hematemesis is rarely encountered as an initial symptom of multiple myeloma. Here we report a case of multiple myeloma with an initial symptom of hematemesis. Gastroscopy revealed ulceration in the angulus of the stomach. Colonoscopy revealed many ulcers in the ascending colon. A definite diagnosis of gastrointestinal amyloidosis was made using tissue biopsy. A definite diagnosis of multiple myeloma was made using bone marrow puncture. Hematemesis may be an initial symptom of multiple myeloma. A diagnosis of amyloidosis-induced hematemesis should be considered in patients with multiple myeloma.
