Oral amyloidosis: A case report and diagnostic algorithm.
Article in Journal of oral and maxillofacial pathology : JOMFP. 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
Background: Amyloidosis is a distressing and infrequent condition caused by accumulation of abnormally folded proteins as aggregates in the extracellular tissue spaces of the body, leading to destruction of organ structure and function. Presentation of Oral Amyloidosis is generally a rare phenomenon, tongue being the most common site to manifest the disease process. Accurate recognition of the amyloid protein and its sub typing is absolutely critical for clinical management and to assess prognosis such as to avoid misdiagnosis and unwanted, potentially harmful treatment. Case Report: We report a case of 84 year old male patient with an enlarged tongue, who presented with burning sensation and a facial violaceous papules with no other known systemic findings. Incisional biopsy revealed amorphous deposits confirmed for amyloid by congo red stain and Immunohistochemistry. Conclusion: The suspicion of Amyloidosis should always be kept in mind whenever a solitary enlargement of the tongue is noticed. Close follow-up and an entire panel of investigations is mandatory, both to manage recurrences and to monitor the possible advancement of the disease into a full blown systemic form.
