From Pseudo-Surgical Abdomen to Renal Amyloidosis: Delayed Diagnosis of Familial Mediterranean Fever in an Adolescent.
Article in Cureus, 2026. 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
Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal recessive autoinflammatory disease characterized by recurrent febrile episodes and serositis. Delayed diagnosis remains a major concern, as it may lead to severe complications, particularly AA amyloidosis. We report the case of a male patient, born to a consanguineous family, with recurrent episodes of fever and abdominal pain since early childhood, initially leading to an unnecessary appendectomy. The diagnosis of FMF was established at the age of 13 following the onset of nephrotic syndrome. Renal biopsy confirmed AA amyloidosis, and genetic testing revealed a homozygous M694V mutation in the
