Infantile Hypothalamic Hamartoma: A Rare Presentation of Isolated Obesity.
Article in JCEM case reports, 2024. 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
Hypothalamic hamartomas (HHs) are rare, benign brain tumors or lesions of the hypothalamus that are predominantly identified in cases of epilepsy and central precocious puberty (CPP), whereas isolated manifestations of infantile obesity are atypical. We herein report an 8-month-old boy with severe obesity (Kaup index 26.4 [>100th percentile]) and uncontrollable hyperphagia. His growth chart demonstrated remarkable weight gain that exceeded the length gain in magnitude. Brain magnetic resonance imaging identified a lesion consistent with HH. There were no episodes or clinical findings of epilepsy, CPP, or Cushing disease. Hypothalamic obesity should be considered in the diagnosis even in infants with excessive weight gain due to overeating.
