Multiple Myeloma-Associated Light Chain Amyloidosis and a Proposed Approach to Monoclonal Immunoglobulin-Associated Renal Disease.
Article in Case reports in nephrology and dialysis. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Many challenges remain in diagnosing monoclonal immunoglobulin-associated renal disease, despite widespread application of immunofluorescence (IF) and immunohistochemistry. Here, we report a newly diagnosed case of multiple myeloma with clinical suspicion of renal amyloidosis, which had negative IF staining for kappa and lambda light chains in the glomeruli. Although laser microdissection and mass spectrometry-based proteomic analysis have emerged as important tools for amyloid typing in the literature, such facilities are still not widely available in Asia. We propose that a clinicopathological algorithm for the evaluation of organized monoclonal renal deposits, together with a combined nephrological-haematological approach, will still be adequate to generate an unequivocal diagnosis in the majority of cases.
