Chronic Diarrhea as the Presenting Feature of Amyloidosis with Multiple Myeloma: A Case Report Diagnosed by a Myocardial Biopsy.

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 73-year-old woman with a history of diarrhea for one year and other various symptoms was admitted to our hospital. Gastrointestinal endoscopy that included enteroscopy with multiple biopsies was performed. However, no significant findings were observed. Electrocardiography showed low voltage in all limb leads, and an echocardiogram showed thickened cardiac walls with granular sparkling pattern. A myocardial biopsy revealed amyloidosis, and a bone marrow biopsy showed multiple myeloma. This case suggests that we should suspect the possibility of amyloidosis in a patient with diarrhea and various symptoms involving multiple organ systems. Additionally, electrocardiograms and echocardiograms should be performed even when gastrointestinal biopsies reveal negative results.
