Screening for M-proteinemia consisting of monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance and multiple myeloma for 30 years among atomic bomb survivors in Hiroshima.

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
Monoclonal gammopathy (M-proteinemia) is a premalignant plasma cell disorder. The prevalence of M-proteinemia increases with age and is affected by genetic or environmental factors. Atomic bomb (A-bomb) survivors in Hiroshima are in an age range when they are susceptible to M-proteinemia. The prevalence and incidence of M-proteinemia in Hiroshima A-bomb survivors were investigated for 30 years (1989-2018) to examine the influence of radiation exposure. The overall prevalence of M-proteinemia among 38,602 A-bomb survivors was 2.4%. M-proteinemia prevalence at age 70 years and monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) incidence were not associated with radiation exposure category. Males had a 2.30-fold higher prevalence and a 2.08-fold higher incidence than females. The risk of incidence for MGUS was 4.32-fold higher in persons aged < 10 years at the time of the A-bombing and 2.56-fold higher in those aged 10-19 years compared with those aged over 30 years. IgG type M-proteinemia was common and the IgM type developed 5-8 years later than other immunoglobulin types. Exposure to radiation was not clearly associated with the prevalence of M-proteinemia or incidence of MGUS in Hiroshima A-bomb survivors. However, males and those aged < 20 years at A-bombing had higher susceptibility to MGUS.
