Delayed Diagnosis in a Rare Case of Pulmonary Sarcoidosis Presenting as Unilateral Hilar Lymphadenopathy and Fever of Unknown Origin.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 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
In this report, we present a rare case of sarcoidosis presenting as fever of unknown origin with unilateral hilar lymphadenopathy, in contrast with the typical presentation of sarcoidosis. Sarcoidosis presenting with asymmetric or isolated unilateral lymphadenopathy is highly unusual. Sarcoidosis is also an uncommon cause of fever of unknown origin. This atypical presentation led to diagnostic delays in our case. This case report emphasizes the importance of considering sarcoidosis early in the differential diagnosis of fever of unknown origin with unilateral hilar lymphadenopathy.
