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

Amyloid arthropathy is a rare but serious complication in patients with chronic renal failure with a history of prolonged hemodialysis. The underlying pathophysiology is the accumulation of beta-2 microglobulin in intra- and periarticular tissues, with consequent synovial thickening and erosions. Imaging-based diagnosis of amyloid arthropathy allows prompt clinical management and better patient outcomes. In view of vague clinical presentation and uncommon incidence, the radiologist is often the first one to suspect this complication. We hereby describe the case of a 66-year-old man with gradually progressive left hip pain for the past 6 months who was diagnosed to have bilateral amyloid arthropathy and was subsequently confirmed with computed tomography (CT) guided synovial biopsy. Amyloid arthropathy should be considered in patients with hip pain who are on long-term hemodialysis and present with suggestive findings on radiograph, CT, and magnetic resonance studies.
