1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Our recent work demonstrated that vision can recalibrate the vestibular signal used to re-establish equilibrium following a platform perturbation. Here, we investigate whether vision provided during a platform perturbation can recalibrate the use of vestibular reafference during the dynamic phase of the perturbation response. Dynamic postural responses were examined during a series of five forward perturbations to the body, while galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS) selectively altered vestibular feedback and LCD occlusion spectacles controlled visual availability. Responses with and without vision were compared. The presence of GVS caused 1.78 ± 0.19 cm of medio-lateral (ML) body motion toward the anode during the initial 3 s of the dynamic postural response across perturbations. This dynamic ML response was attenuated across perturbations 1-3 independent of visual availability, resulting in a significant reduction of ML center of mass and pressure deviations (p < 0.01, ƞ
