An interesting case of AL amyloidosis and MM: a complex scenario with cardiac involvement.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2024. 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
Our patient presented with complaints of progressive shortness of breath for 1 month. She was diagnosed with a case of infiltrative type of restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM) based on echocardiography and cardiac MRI findings. Her fat pad biopsy was suggestive of AL type of amyloidosis (AL). She was diagnosed with a case of multiple myeloma (MM) based on bone marrow biopsy findings with 48% plasma cells and a skeletal survey with lytic bone lesions on the skull, thus meeting the Crab criteria. We want to highlight the complex nature of this case and the difficulties associated with making a diagnosis. This case report presents an excellent opportunity to touch on the interesting topics of RCM, amyloidosis and MM.
