Ulcerated Tongue Borders as a Sign of Amyloidosis in a Patient with Multiple Myeloma.
Article in International journal of hematology-oncology and stem cell research, 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
Amyloidosis is characterized by extracellular deposition of amyloid material in various tissues and organs. Deposition of amyloid in the tongue is rare but often occurs in multiple myeloma. Here we present the case of a 44-year-old woman under treatment for multiple myeloma who complained of lateral tongue pain. Intraoral examination revealed an ill-defined, firm, whitish swelling with an ulcerated surface on the bilateral borders of the tongue. Histopathological analysis revealed a lympho-mononuclear infiltration in the lamina propria with the presence of acellular and amorphous material positive for Congo red staining. Further examination revealed amyloidosis in a cervical mass associated with neural compression. Thorough examination of the oral cavity in patients with multiple myeloma is critical for early detection of amyloidosis. A biopsy is mandatory to confirm the diagnosis, thereby facilitating intervention and management if necessary.
