A Rare Case of Gastrointestinal Amyloidosis Presenting as Dysphagia.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 74-year-old male with an unintentional 20-pound weight loss over the past year presented with new-onset dysphagia to solid foods. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy showed a subtle stricture with ill-defined scar tissue-like findings in the distal esophagus and erosions in the antrum of the stomach without masses. Pathologic findings showed the presence of amyloidosis involving the proximal and distal esophagus, as well as gastric mucosa with chronic inflammation and reactive epithelial changes. We present a rare case of dysphagia as the initial presentation of gastrointestinal amyloidosis.
