A case of monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance and minimal change disease complicated by bilateral pulmonary emboli.
Article in SAGE open medical case reports, 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
Nephrotic syndrome and monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance are thought to be associated with venous thromboembolism. However, the association is thought to be weak and is often ignored by clinicians. We present a rare case of sudden-onset bilateral pulmonary emboli with lower extremity deep vein thrombosis in a patient diagnosed with both minimal change disease and immunoglobulin M (IgM) kappa monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance. No previous report has been published describing venous thromboembolism in a patient with plasma cell dyscrasia and minimal change disease. This case establishes the importance of considering a diagnostic workup for both disorders in patients with venous thromboembolism. Furthermore, venous thromboembolism risk in patients with both of these diseases is significant. Benefits of prophylactic anticoagulation in these patients are still controversial.
