Article in Frontiers in neurology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06350669 (App-supported Vestibular Rehabilitation), which is not on this map. Cited by 27 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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.

Abstract

Gaze stability exercises are a critical component of vestibular rehabilitation for individuals with vestibular hypofunction and many studies reveal the rehabilitation improves functional performance. However, few studies have examined the vestibular physiologic mechanisms (semicircular canal; otolith) responsible for such recovery after patients with vestibular hypofunction complete gaze and gait stability exercises. The purpose of this study was to compare behavioral outcome measures (i.e., visual acuity during head rotation) with physiological measures (i.e., gain of the vestibulo-ocular reflex) of gaze stability following a progressive vestibular rehabilitation program in patients following unilateral vestibular deafferentation surgery (UVD). We recruited
