Midlateral medullary infarction presenting with isolated thermoanaesthesia: a case report.
Article in BMC neurology, 2022. 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
backgroundA small lateral medullary lesion could produce isolated impairment of temperature sensation without concomitant impaired pain sensation. However, only one such case has ever been reported, and there are no reports on subjective symptoms and detailed somatosensory testing. CASE PRESENTATION: Herein, we report the case of a 53-year-old female patient presenting with impaired temperature sensation on the left half of her body, from the neck down, following a small infarction of the right midlateral medulla. The chronological changes in the patient's introspection regarding impairment of thermoception and the results of detailed somatosensory tests, including thermal sense, are shown in this report.
conclusionsThorough somatosensory tests, personal descriptions of symptoms, and electrophysiological quantification of similar cases are needed to improve our understanding of the neurological separation of the sensations of pain and temperature at the medullary level.
