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

Amyloidosis may be hereditary or acquired and the deposits can be focal, localized, or systemic in distribution. A discrete mass of amyloid deposition is called an amyloidoma and is the least common presentation. Soft tissue amyloidoma in an extremity is exceedingly rare. Amyloidomas can mimic malignant neoplasms both clinically and radiologically. We report a case of an amyloidoma in the foot, which has not been previously described. Clinical history, pathology, and immunohistochemistry and appearance by MRI are described. Knowledge of this atypical lesion, in its various forms, is important for experts in musculoskeletal radiology, pathology, surgery, and oncology to appreciate as it can prevent confusion with more sinister disease processes such as malignancy. Early recognition can help guide appropriate management in a timely fashion.
