Evaluation of vestibular exercises in the management of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo.
Article in Indian journal of otolaryngology and head and neck surgery : official publication of the Association of Otolaryngologists of India, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
aim(1) To evaluate the role of vestibular exercises in the management of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). (2) To compare the three vestibular exercises (Semont's manoeuvre, Epley's manoeuvre or Brandt-Daroff exercises) in the treatment of BPPV. SETTINGS AND
designProspective randomised study METHODS AND MATERIAL: Fourty-eight patients diagnosed as BPPV in the study period November 2005-2006 were included in the study. They were randomly assigned to one of three groups, and the corresponding manoeuvre was done on them. Follow-up were at 2 weeks and 3 months.
resultsThirty-five of the 48 patients (72.91%) reported relief of symptoms at 2 weeks and no recurrence of symptoms at 3 months. Result was best for the group which was subjected to the Epley manoeuvre (87.5%).
conclusionsPerformance of any of the three manoeuvres can be expected to give good results in the management of BPPV. The Epley manoeuvre appears to be better than the other two in terms of relief of symptoms and prevention of recurrence.
