First Case of Nodular Localized Primary Cutaneous Amyloidosis Treated With Bortezomib and Dexamethasone.
Article in Journal of investigative medicine high impact case reports. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Nodular localized cutaneous amyloidosis is a rare form of cutaneous amyloidosis and is characterized by an extracellular deposition of insoluble amyloid fibrils which are either primarily cutaneous or a manifestation of an underlying systemic amyloidosis. Biopsy of the lesion is mandatory for the diagnosis, and histopathology shows diffuse amyloid deposits with plasmacytic infiltration. Apple-green birefringence characteristic of amyloidosis is observed when stained with Congo red and viewed under polarized light. Amyloid subtyping is done with laser microdissection followed by mass spectrometry. Majority of these lesions do not require any treatment but surgical excision, shave excision, laser therapy, and radiotherapy can be considered for symptomatic nodular localized primary cutaneous amyloidosis (NLPCA). We present a case of recurrent NLPCA in a 64-year-old woman who was treated with bortezomib and dexamethasone after failing several local therapies with excellent response.
