BPPV Simulation: A Powerful Tool to Understand and Optimize the Diagnostics and Treatment of all Possible Variants of BPPV.
Article in Frontiers in neurology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 21 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
BPPV is a mechanical disorder caused by the displacement of otolith debris into the semicircular canals. The treatment involves different repositioning maneuvers to bring the debris back into the utricle. This study aims to show how dynamic simulation models based on fluid dynamics and MRI, can help to visualize and understand the movement of the debris within the canals during head movement in 3D as a function of time. The user can define the rotation angle and plane at each step of the maneuver and then the model visualizes the canal and the otoconial movement in 3D. The simulation developed also allows alteration of various parameters like the rotational head acceleration, the duration of each step of the maneuver, the initial position of the otoconial debris in the canal, the size and the number of the particles and fluid dynamics of endolymph. The clod movement is visualized in such a way that it allows a better understanding of the impact and efficacy of various liberation maneuvers and why certain maneuvers might fail when not applied properly in the clinic. The model allows simulation of multi-canal BPPV. In this paper we demonstrate the power of the model applied on the maneuvers of Semont and Yacovino when executed in different ways. The model aims to provide a visual explanation for the need of specific maneuvers for each type of BPPV. The simulator presented here can be used to test the efficacy of existing maneuvers and help in the development of new maneuvers to treat different BPPV variants.
