A case report of an M protein-negative patient with POEMS syndrome associated with renal involvement.
Article in BMC nephrology, 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
backgroundPOEMS syndrome with polyneuropathy, organomegaly, endocrinopathy, M protein, and skin changes is an uncommon plasma cell paraneoplastic syndrome involving multiple system. It is relatively rare in clinical practice, and renal involvement is a usual yet easily overlooked symptom. CASE PRESENTATION: We successfully treated a patient with M protein-negative POEMS syndrome with membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN) findings and thrombotic microangiopathic changes by comparing the level of Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in the serum and the changes in polyserositis before and after the patient's treatment.
conclusionPOEMS syndrome clinically involves multiple systems and has complex symptoms. Because of the diversity of the disease manifestations, identification of atypical POEMS syndrome and timely intervention are important for patient survival and prognosis.
