Slip-Ups in the Diagnosis of Cardiac Amyloidosis: A Case Fatality in Point.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
This case report illustrates a tragic example of a "missed diagnosis" of amyloid light-chain (AL) amyloidosis with cardiac involvement that led to progressive heart failure and the ultimate death of the patient. It had a rather atypical presentation in terms of cardiac imaging, although there were certain highly suspicious clinical features, cardiac and otherwise. It also illustrates the importance of selecting the most appropriate assays to establish (or rule out) the presence of monoclonal immunoglobulin consistent with AL amyloidosis, which has a poor clinical prognosis, as unfortunately demonstrated in this case.
