Drug fever: a narrative review.
Article in Annals of clinical epidemiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Drug fever is an adverse drug reaction accompanied by a febrile response and is a common problem among clinicians, hence an updated knowledge of drug fever is important. A consensus regarding the definition of drug fever is lacking. Thus, descriptions of drug fever in previous literature are often inconsistent. In this narrative review, we summarized various features of drug fever, including its definition, epidemiology, risk factors, clinical presentation, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis, based on the earliest literature. Recent advances in information technology have encouraged researchers to use pharmacovigilance databases for clinical and pharmacological research. We outlined how a pharmacovigilance database, along with recently developed research methods, could be used to research drug fever.
