Clinical Imaging Findings of Vestibular Aqueduct Trauma in a Patient With Posttraumatic Meniere's Syndrome.
Article in Frontiers in neurology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Posttraumatic Meniere's syndrome is a rare clinical entity. The pathomechanism by which temporal bone trauma leads to fluctuating audiovestibular symptoms, in some cases with a delay of onset many years after trauma, remains elusive. Here, a clinical case and the respective temporal bone imaging data were reviewed to investigate the underlying inner ear pathology. A 44-year-old patient presented with left-sided Meniere's syndrome 34 years after he suffered an ipsilateral temporal bone fracture caused by a car accident. Clinical imaging showed left cochleovestibular hydrops (gadolinium-enhanced MRI) and bony obliteration of the left VA (CT imaging), resulting in discontinuity of the ES. Our findings suggest that a temporal bone fracture with a "retrolabyrinthine" course, traversing the VA, caused intraaqueductal callus bone formation and progressive blockage of the VA. As a result, the extraosseous (distal) endolymphatic sac (eES) became separated from the cochleovestibular labyrinth, an event that presumably underlies endolymphatic hydrops formation and that precipitates the onset of clinical Meniere's symptoms in this case.
