Linezolid-induced black hairy tongue in a patient treated for idiopathic granulomatous mastitis: a case report.
Article in Annals of medicine and surgery (2012), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Linezolid-induced black hairy tongue (BHT) is a highly scarce adverse event of linezolid therapy. To date, there are very few reported cases in contemporary literature. The onset and mechanism of BHT are also not well understood. Case report: In this article, the authors report a case of BHT in a 28-year-old female following 5 days of therapy with linezolid. The patient recovered well within few days of discontinuation of the drug and maintaining oral hygeine. Patient reassurance and counselling was integral to the management. Discussion and conclusion: This case report and review depict a rare adverse effect of linezolid and discuss its clinical implications aiding healthcare professionals in an early diagnosis and cromulent management strategy. The authors also present a compilation of previously reported literature on linezolid-induced BHT to support the discussion.
