Repeated video head impulse testing in patients is a stable measure of the passive vestibulo-ocular reflex.
Article in Journal of otology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
objectivesThe video head impulse test (vHIT) is used as a measure of compensation yet it's stability in patients with vestibular pathology is unknown.
methods144 patients (n = 72 female, mean 54.46 ± 15.8 years) were grouped into one of three primary diagnoses (Peripheral, Central, or Mixed). Subjects were further categorized based on sex (male versus female), ear (left versus right; ipsilesional versus contralesional), age (six groups ranging from 19 to 84 years), and duration between visits (five groups, mean 191.46 ± SE 29.42 days, median 55.5 days). The gain of the VOR during passive head rotation was measured for each semicircular canal (horizontal, anterior, posterior).
resultsThere was no difference in the VOR gain within any semicircular canal between the two visits (horizontal: p = 0.179; anterior: p = 0.628; posterior: p = 0.613). However, the VOR gain from the horizontal canals was higher than the vertical canals for each visit (p < 0.001). Patients diagnosed with peripheral vestibular pathology had significantly lower (p ≤ 0.001) horizontal semicircular canal gains at each visit. There was no difference in VOR gain between sex (p = 0.215) or age groupings (p = 0.331). Test-retest reliability of vHIT in patient subjects is good (ICC = 0.801) and the VOR gain values across two separate visits were significant and positively correlated (r = 0.67) regardless of sex, ear, age, or duration between visits.
conclusionThe vHIT is a stable measure of VOR gain over two different times across a variety of vestibular patients with no influence of age or sex.
