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

Amyloid deposits are defined by their tinctorial properties. Under the light microscope amyloid deposits are eosinophilic and amorphous when stained with hematoxylin and eosin. With Congo red staining the deposits are positive and under polarized light will exhibit green birefringence. Sixty years later electron microscopy demonstrated that all deposits were fibrillar. All amyloid deposits are protein derived. The clinical characteristics will be driven by the nature of the protein subunit. In cardiology, the 2 most common subunits accounting for well more than 90% of cardiac amyloidosis are either immunoglobulin light chain, amyloid light-chain (AL) amyloidosis, or transthyretin; transthyretin (TTR) amyloidosis. Although 70% of patients with systemic amyloidosis have cardiac involvement the diagnosis is made by cardiologists only 20% of the time, suggesting significant gaps in knowledge in how to establish a workflow to arrive at a diagnosis in everyday practice.
