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

Amyloidosis is a group of rare deposition diseases marked by the accumulation of abnormal fibrillar proteins in the extracellular space of various tissues. In both AL and AA amyloidosis, the most common variants, isolated involvement to any one organ is uncommon and involvement to the colon alone is especially rare. We present the case of a patient who was initially found to have AL amyloidosis on prior screening colonoscopy that was reconfirmed several years with repeat evaluation for chronic constipation. This disease process is often insidious and can be overlooked by providers given the lack of overwhelming symptoms.
