Ornidazole-induced involuntary tremor in a Chinese woman: a rare case report and literature review.
Review in BMC neurology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Nitromidazole antibiotics, exemplified by metronidazole and ornidazole, have been reported to trigger a spectrum of adverse effects. These encompass ataxia, hearing loss, visual impairment, psychomotor dysfunction, intellectual impairment, and epileptic seizures (Rinsho Shinkeigaku 64:637-641, 2024). Nevertheless, cases of involuntary limb tremors have been scarcely documented. Ornidazole, the most recent derivative within this class, boasts a longer half - life and is infrequently linked to limb tremors. This article reports a 63-year-old female patient who developed progressive limb tremors following long-term, high-dose administration of ornidazole, with symptoms gradually alleviating after discontinuation of the drug.
