Efficacy and Comparison of Vestibular Rehabilitation Exercises on Quality of Life in Patients with Vestibular Disorders.
Article in Indian journal of otolaryngology and head and neck surgery : official publication of the Association of Otolaryngologists of India, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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.

Abstract
Vertigo is the sensation of spinning or having one's surroundings spin about them. It represents about 25% of cases of occurrences of dizziness Yardley et al. (Br J Gen Pract 48(429):1131-1135, 1998). About 40% patients have peripheral vestibular dysfunction (Neuhauser in Curr Opin Neurol 20:40-46, 2007). Quality of life (QOL) is significantly impaired by vertigo (Patatas et al. in Braz J Otorhinolaryngol 75:387-394, 2009). To study the effect and compare vestibular exercises on QOL in patients with vestibular disorders. 120 individuals with vestibular disorders like acoustic neuroma, vestibular neuritis, labyrinthitis, Meniere's disease, vestibulopathy, ISSNHL and ototoxicity were included. Four groups adaptation exercises, habituation exercises, substitution exercises, and combined exercises were formed and 30 individuals were selected in each group randomly. Vestibular activities and participation (VAP) was administered before and after exercises to fulfill the aim. VAP Scale results revealed significant difference between pre and post treatment score in all groups, suggestive of positive effect on QOL in patients with vestibular disorders. Improvements in VAP Score between all groups were compared and significant difference was observed. Combined exercises group found to be best out of 4 exercises group.
