Cabozantinib as the causative agent of high-grade fever in a patient with a background of metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma: a case report.
Article in Journal of medical case reports, 2020. 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
backgroundFever, as an adverse event, is well documented in a wide array of drugs including multiple tyrosine kinase inhibitors however, it is not a previously well described consequence of the novel multi-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor, cabozantinib. CASE PRESENTATION: In this paper we document the first detailed review of high-grade fevers in a 54 year old male (Caucasian) with a background of metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma recently commenced on cabozantinib. After detailed investigation, we exclude infection and other common causes of fever as the causative agent and further, definitively resolve the recurrent fever by ceasing cabozantinib and starting a short course of oral corticosteroids.
conclusionsWe have demonstrated that cabozantinib should always be considered in the aetiology of high-grade fever in relevant patients. Further, we demonstrate that temporary cessation of cabozantinib and a course of short-term steroids can induce resolution of fever and allow for recommencement of cabozantinib safely thereafter.
