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
Transient receptor potential melastatin 8 (TRPM8) functions in the sensing of noxious and innocuous colds; however, its significance in pathogen-induced thermoregulation remains unclear. In the present study, we investigated the role of TRPM8 in the regulation of endotoxin-induced body temperature control. The peripheral administration of low-dose lipopolysaccharide (LPS) at 50 μg/kg generated fever in wild-type (WT) mice, whereas it caused hypothermia in TRPM8 knockout (KO) animals. LPS-induced sickness responses such as decrease in body weight, and food and water intake were not different between WT and TRPM8 KO mice. TRPM8 KO mice exhibited more severe hypothermia and lower locomotor activity following the peripheral administration of high-dose LPS at 5 mg/kg compared with WT ones. An intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) injection of either LPS at 3.6 μg/kg or interleukin-1β at 400 ng/kg elicited hypothermia in TRPM8 KO mice, in contrast to fever in WT animals. The peripheral administration of zymosan at 3 mg/kg also induced hypothermia in contrast to fever in WT mice. An i.c.v. injection of prostaglandin E
