Linezolid toxic optic neuropathy: A case report and review of visual prognosis.
Article in American journal of ophthalmology case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Purpose: To describe a case of linezolid toxic optic neuropathy in a 71-year-old female and review the relevant literature. Observations: An adult female with progressive, symmetric vision loss was hypothesized to have linezolid toxic optic neuropathy. Following cessation of linezolid, the patient experienced improvement in visual function over two months. Conclusions and importance: Patients diagnosed with linezolid toxic optic neuropathy can expect some return of visual function after cessation. The degree of return does not correlate to the cumulative dose of the drug. The goal of this study was to summarize and add to the current body of literature on the topic.
