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

The incidence of systemic amyloid A (AA) amyloidosis was high in Bengalese finches (Lonchura striata var. domestica), as 150 of 235 birds from 5 breeding colonies (63.8%) tested positive for it. The incidence was statistically significantly higher in one colony. The liver was the most frequently affected organ (150 cases), followed by the spleen and then the kidneys. The degree of amyloid deposition was high in the liver and spleen and low in the kidneys. The histological distribution of amyloid deposits was similar in all finch species. Species-specific or colony-specific predisposing factors for systemic AA amyloidosis in Bengalese finches remain to be elucidated. As far as we know, this is the first report of amyloidosis in Bengalese finches.
