Milestones in the development of a vestibular implant.
Review in Current opinion in neurology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04918745 (VertiGO! - Get up and GO! With the Vestibular Implant), which is not on this map. Cited by 46 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.

Abstract
purpose of reviewBilateral vestibular deficits exist and their prevalence is more important than believed by the medical community. Their severe impact has inspired several teams to develop technical solutions in an attempt to rehabilitate patients. A particularly promising pathway is the vestibular implant. This article describes the main milestones in this field, mainly focusing on work conducted in human patients. RECENT
findingsThere have been substantial research efforts, first in animals and more recently in humans, toward the development of vestibular implants. Humans have demonstrated surprising adaptation capabilities to the artificial vestibular signal. Today, the possibility of restoring vestibular reflexes, particularly the vestibulo-ocular reflex, and even achieving useful function in close-to-reality tasks (i.e. improving visual abilities while walking) have been demonstrated in humans. SUMMARY: The vestibular implant opens new perspectives, not only as an effective therapeutic tool, but also pushes us to go beyond current knowledge and well-established clinical concepts.
