Clinical features and management of Meniere's disease patients with drop attacks.
Article in European archives of oto-rhino-laryngology : official journal of the European Federation of Oto-Rhino-Laryngological Societies (EUFOS) : affiliated with the German Society for Oto-Rhino-Laryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 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.
Who cites it
17 citing papers in PubMed, 1 synthesis or guideline pooled it, 45 citations in OpenAlex.

Abstract
purposeThe aims of the present study are to investigate the variations in clinical features, including medical history, hearing function, vestibular function, and degree of endolymphatic hydrops (EH), in Meniere's disease (MD) patients with and without drop attacks (DAs), and to examine the efficacy of intratympanic gentamicin (ITG) treatment in alleviating DAs.
methodsIn total, 177 unilateral definite MD patients, including 16 patients with DAs and 161 patients without DAs, were enrolled. The results of hearing test, vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials (VEMPs), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were analyzed. Thirteen patients with DAs received a single ITG treatment and were followed up.
resultsThe disease course of MD in the DA group was significantly longer than that in the control group (p = 0.007). MD patients with DAs had significantly greater hearing loss and worse EH than MD patients without DAs (p < 0.05). However, there was no between-group difference in vestibular function. In the study, 92.31% of refractory definite MD patients with DAs achieved satisfactory control of DAs after ITG treatment.
conclusionsMD patients with DAs tend to suffer from severe hearing loss and a significant degree of EH in the inner ear. However, the vestibular function of MD patients with DAs may not be completely abolished, but be sensitive to stimulating signals. ITG treatment, which helps to decrease vestibular sensitivity, was an effective treatment to control DAs.
