Primary thymic mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma complicated with renal amyloidosis: A first case report.
Article in Medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
introductionPrimary mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphomas originating in thymus is rare. And, there have been few reports of patients with MALT coexisting with amyloidosis. As far as we know, this was the first case report on MALT lymphoma associated with renal amyloidosis. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 57-year-old man presented with nephrotic syndrome. Further workup revealed IgM-Lambda type monoclonal gammopathy. Bone marrow biopsy showed 8% clonal plasma cells. Renal biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of Lambda light chain AL amyloidosis. positron emission tomography/computed tomography showed thymic lesions which upon biopsy were diagnosed as MALT lymphoma of the thymus. DIAGNOSIS: Primary thymic MALT lymphoma complicated with renal amyloidosis.
interventionsThe patient underwent surgical resection of the thymus mass and 2 courses of chemotherapy. OUTCOMES: Follow-up data showed that the patient survived 18 months after surgical excision and chemotherapy.
conclusionThe case highlights the importance of screening for malignancy in patients with renal amyloidosis.
