Association between Syncope and Tumarkin Attacks in Ménière's Disease.
Article in The journal of international advanced otology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
objectivesThe aim of the current study was to further collect evidence that would confirm the hypothesis that vestibular drop attacks (VDAs) could cause syncope in patients with Ménière's disease (MD). MATERIALS AND
methodsA cross-sectional survey design was employed in the present study. An Internet-based survey was administered on 602 individuals with MD. The mean age of the participants was 56.7 (25-75) years, and the mean duration of the disease was 12.4 (0.5-35) years.
resultsVDAs with varying severity were present among 307 (50.7%) patients and led to fall in 92 patients, and syncope occurred in 45 patients with VDA. The overall percentage of syncope due to MD was 4.7%. Factors, such as duration of disease, age, and gender of the patient, did not explain attacks of syncope. Migraine and headache were not associated with syncope. Syncope was witnessed in 23 and self-reported by 22 patients. Syncope was associated with frequent VDA, duration of VDA, and falls that occurred during VDA. Patients with syncope reported the experience as frightening, had reduced general health-related quality of life, had higher anxiousness scores, and suffered more from fatigue. They also experienced problems with work, employment, and social restrictions.
conclusionApproximately 5% of patients with MD suffer from syncope, and syncope occurs among patients with VDA. In vestibular syncope, the sympathetic tone is lost, and baroreflex feedback is inhibited leading to fall and syncope. The consequences of vestibular syncope are severe, and patients face injuries and a significantly reduced quality of life.
