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

Introduction: It has been recognized that periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) staining of amyloid deposits is typically weak or negative in the majority of AL amyloidosis. However, a subset of patients exhibits PAS-positive deposits, and their clinicopathological significance remains unclear. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 269 patients with renal biopsy-proven AL amyloidosis from our institution; 72 were classified as PAS positive and 197 as PAS negative. Baseline demographics, clinical data, renal pathology features, treatment strategies, and prognostic information were collected. Multivariable linear regression and Cox proportional hazards models were used to determine the impact of PAS-positive amyloid deposition on renal function and patients' outcomes. Results: Compared with the PAS-negative group, PAS-positive patients had higher serum creatinine (94.40 vs. 79 μmol/L, Conclusion: PAS-positive amyloid deposits are associated with more severe renal injury and poorer prognosis in AL amyloidosis.
