Gastrointestinal Bleeding Caused by Large Intestine Amyloidosis.
Article in Federal practitioner : for the health care professionals of the VA, DoD, and PHS, 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
Background: Amyloidosis is a rare disorder caused by abnormal folding of proteins, leading to the dysfunction of normal tissues. Amyloid deposition can affect several organs, but deposition in the large intestine is rare. Case Presentation: A 79-year-old man presented with gastrointestinal bleeding and nonspecific symptoms of weight loss, dry heaves, dysphagia, and weakness. The patient underwent esophagogastroduodenoscopy and colonoscopy and a biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of intestinal amyloidosis. Conclusions: This case report highlights the importance of a strong differential when working up gastrointestinal bleeding that includes amyloidosis. Early identification and multidisciplinary involvement are crucial for management and tailored care to each patient's needs.
