1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Light chain amyloidosis is one of the most common systemic amyloidosis, characterized by the deposition of immunoglobulin light variable domain as insoluble amyloid fibrils in vital organs, leading to the death of patients. Germline λ6a is closely related with this disease and has been reported that 25% of proteins encoded by this germline have a change at position 24 where an Arg is replaced by a Gly (R24G). This germline variant reduces protein stability and increases the propensity to form amyloid fibrils. In this work, the crystal structure of 6aJL2-R24G has been determined to 2.0 Å resolution by molecular replacement. Crystal belongs to space group I2
