A case of benign immunoglobulin D monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance with 26 years of follow-up.

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
The presence of a serum immunoglobulin D (IgD) monoclonal protein (M-protein) is seen in < 1% of patients with monoclonal gammopathies and is usually indicative of a malignant plasma cell disorder. Only a few cases of well-documented benign monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) of IgD subtype have been reported, and only 2 of those had over 5 years of follow-up at the time they were reported. Herein we describe longer-term follow-up of one of those 2 patients who has subsequently passed away from unrelated causes but never developed multiple myeloma or amyloidosis after 26 years of follow-up. Although IgD MGUS is extremely rare, this case confirms that presence of an IgD M-Protein is not always synonymous with a malignant plasma cell process.
