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

POEMS syndrome is an uncommon paraneoplastic syndrome featuring polyneuropathy, organomegaly, endocrinopathy, monoclonal gammopathy, and skin changes. POEMS syndrome in conjunction with plasmacytoma is a particularly rare finding, mostly featured only in case reports and small case series. We present a case of a 52-year-old female with POEMS syndrome with a biopsy-proven solitary bone plasmacytoma of the scapula demonstrating atypical imaging features. While plasmacytomas are typically considered locally aggressive lesions, the plasmacytoma in this patient with POEMS syndrome exhibited stability in size and local invasion over a period of almost a year despite lack of treatment. This case demonstrates that radiographic stability of these lesions, while uncommon, can occur and should not exclude the diagnosis of plasmacytoma.
