Neurogenic fever in a patient with a chordoid glioma.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Chordoid gliomas are rare tumours. Despite being considered low-grade neoplasms, recent reviews have reported generally poor prognosis due to complications involving severe hypothalamic symptoms. We report a patient aged 30 years with chordoid glioma. What makes this case report interesting is the presence of neurogenic fever, which was already present before the final diagnosis of the brain tumour and also several months after the surgical removal. Since the patient underwent a subtotal resection of the tumour, it remains unclear whether the fever was due to hypothalamic dysfunction or remnants of the tumour. We also performed temperature logging with a continuous-monitoring recording device.
