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

Sporadic late-onset nemaline myopathy (SLONM) is a rare, acquired myopathy often associated with monoclonal gammopathy. We report a 48-year-old man presenting with progressive proximal and truncal muscle weakness in whom SLONM associated with smoldering myeloma was highly suspected. He received daratumumab, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone followed by high-dose melphalan with autologous stem cell transplantation and posttransplant therapy. Treatment resulted in marked improvement in muscle strength and performance status. The patient achieved minimal residual disease negativity and has remained relapse-free for 5 years. This case highlights the potential efficacy of daratumumab-based therapy followed by transplantation in SLONM associated with plasma cell dyscrasia. Trial Registration: The authors have confirmed clinical trial registration is not needed for this submission.
