Central positional nystagmus in inferior cerebellar peduncle lesions: a case series.
Article in Journal of neurology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
We aimed to characterize the central positional nystagmus (CPN) observed in lesions involving the inferior cerebellar peduncle (ICP). We analyzed the clinical and neurotologic findings in six patients with an isolated unilateral ICP infarction that had been diagnosed at a university hospital in South Korea from 2003 to 2019. Patients usually presented with acute vestibular syndrome in isolation (4/6, 67%). Ipsilesional spontaneous nystagmus was observed in five while supine (5/6, 83%). Four (4/6, 67%) patients showed CPN which included apogeotropic (n = 3) or geotropic (n = 1) during head turning to either side while supine, and vertical nystagmus during straight-head hanging, Dix-Hallpike maneuvers, or up-righting (n = 3). Four patients showed contraversive ocular tilt reaction or tilt of the subjective visual vertical. Bedside and video head-impulse tests were normal in all patients. CPN is a usual finding in ICP lesions, and may be ascribed to damage of the fibers running from the nodulus/uvula onto the vestibular nucleus via the ICP.
