Delayed Diagnosis of Cardiac Amyloidosis Masked by Chronic Coronary Artery Disease and Ischemic Cardiomyopathy: A Case Report of an Overlooked and Underdiagnosed Etiology.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Cardiac amyloidosis (CA) is an infiltrative disease of the heart characterized by the deposition of insoluble protein aggregates in the myocardium. There are two subtypes of CA, and they are named after the misfolded protein. Transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis (ATTR-CA) is caused by the accumulation of the tetrameric transthyretin protein produced in the liver, and light-chain cardiac amyloidosis (AL-CA) occurs due to circulating abnormal light-chain deposition. Disease manifestation can be very non-specific, and there can be overlap with other cardiac processes. This often leads to a delay in diagnosis and a poor prognosis. Here, we present a case of delayed diagnosis of CA spanning over several years that required a multidisciplinary approach but ultimately resulted in fatality six years after the initial diagnosis.
