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

Pathological hip fractures are associated with substantial morbidity and functional decline. We report a rare case of localized dialysis-related amyloidosis involving both hip joints. A 48-year-old man undergoing long-term hemodialysis presented with atraumatic right hip pain. Radiographs and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a pathological subcapital fracture of the right femoral neck and extensive bilateral femoral neck osteolysis, with amyloid deposition showing low signal intensity on T1-weighted images and high signal intensity on T2-weighted images. Given the severe bone erosion and impending fracture of the left femoral neck, bilateral total hip arthroplasty was performed. No evidence of systemic amyloidosis or plasma cell dyscrasia was identified. At one-year follow-up, the patient showed no postoperative complications and regained independent ambulation. This case represents the first reported Korean case of localized dialysis-related amyloidosis affecting both hip joints.
