Pigmented fungiform papillae in a middle-aged Saudi female.

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
Pigmented fungiform papillae are a rare benign condition. It is commonly considered a diagnosis dilemma as it could be a clinical sign of a serious condition. Our patient was a middle-aged Saudi female presenting with hyperpigmentation along the lateral and anterior aspects of her tongue and was not associated with other cutaneous or mucocutaneous manifestation. Her medical history was significant for iron deficiency anemia, hepatic hemangioma, cervical and lumbar intervertebral disc herniation, and gastroesophageal reflux disease. Upon inspection, she had a longitudinal hyperpigmented tan-brown patch on the lateral aspects of her tongue and pinpoint discoloration evenly distributed on the papillae of the anterior tongue. The examination by mucoscopy revealed a cobblestone appearance along the mentioned distribution. The patient refused to have the biopsy done, but she was reassured about her condition and instructed to visit the clinic if she has any further issues.
