Reduced Balance Restoration Capacities Following Unilateral Vestibular Insult in Elderly Mice.
Article in Frontiers in neurology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Acute vestibular syndrome (AVS) is characterized by severe posturo-locomotor and vestibulo-oculomotor impairment and accompanies several types of peripheral vestibulopathies (PVP). We know very little about its etiology, how its various symptoms are expressed and how it evolves with age. Robust repair capabilities of primary vestibular synapses have recently been shown to restore behavioral functionality. In this study, we used a mouse model of an excitotoxically induced unilateral vestibular lesion to compare the ability to restore balance and posture between old and young adult mice. We compared the temporal evolution of the evoked vestibular syndrome using a battery of behavioral tests to follow the evolution of postural-locomotor alterations and equilibrium. For the first time, we show that young adult (3 months) and elderly (22 months) mice are together able to restore normal postural-locomotor function following transient unilateral excitotoxic vestibular insult, though with different time courses. This animal study paves way for future, more detailed studies of how the early postural and locomotor disturbances following a unilateral insult are compensated for by various plasticity mechanisms, and in particular how age influences these mechanisms.
