A Rare Case of Gastrointestinal Amyloidosis Due to Monoclonal Gammopathy of Undetermined Significance.
Article in Cureus, 2023. 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
Amyloidosis of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is caused by the deposition of fibrils made of serum proteins into extracellular spaces. It is an uncommon disease with a poor prognosis, requiring prompt diagnosis and treatment. Treatment for amyloid light chain (AL)-type amyloidosis involves supportive care as well as addressing any underlying plasma cell dyscrasias. We present the case of a 64-year-old female diagnosed with AL-type GI amyloidosis with associated monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance. Unfortunately, the treatment was initiated nine months after the initial presentation, and she died one month later. Awareness of GI amyloidosis may allow for faster diagnosis and treatment in future patients.
