Multiple Myeloma Presenting With Sudden Paraplegia.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignant neoplasia predominantly characterized by systemic manifestations, but atypical presentations can challenge diagnosis and management, as in the case of solitary plasmacytoma. We present a case of a 60-year-old woman with sudden paraplegia due to a solitary dorsal spinal mass compressing the spinal cord. Emergent surgical decompression prevented further neurological deterioration, but permanent paraplegia remained. This case underlines the importance of recognizing atypical presentations of multiple myeloma, such as solitary spinal lesions, which may mimic other conditions. Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial to prevent irreversible neurological sequelae. Prompt surgical decompression, followed by systemic therapy, can optimize outcomes in patients with this pathology. Multidisciplinary collaboration and aggressive management of complications, as well as early rehabilitation, are also essential to address the complex needs of these patients and improve outcomes.
