Significant role of magnetic resonance imaging for the diagnosis and evaluation of cardiac amyloidosis in primary light chain amyloidosis.
Article in Journal of clinical and experimental hematopathology : JCEH, 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
A 47-year-old male with macroglossia presented with dyspnea on effort and chest pain at rest. Cardiac MRI revealed diffuse global subendocardial late gadolinium enhancement below the left ventricular endocardium and a dark blood pool of intracardiac contrast medium. Tongue biopsy revealed amyloid deposition, which was limited in the myocardium. He was diagnosed with primary light chain amyloidosis. His condition was stage I according to the Mayo Clinic staging system. He underwent autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation. On Day 10, he developed chest pain and died suddenly on Day 11. Postmortem examination revealed amyloid deposition throughout the heart.
