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.

2 · The registry

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

Vestibular migraine (VM) is one of the most common types of episodic vertigo. Over the last 11 years, this disorder has been studied by both neurologists and otolaryngologists. Based on the clinical symptoms and previous migraine history, the Barany Society and the International Classification of Headache Disorders have created the diagnostic criteria for VM. Unilateral and pulsatile headache, phonophobia, photophobia, auras, and a previous history of migraine have been included in these criteria. Although these symptoms are common and widely known, other symptoms not included in the Barany Society criteria are emerging and have been described in some clinical studies. These emerging criteria include audio-vestibular symptoms such as hearing loss, ear fullness, and tinnitus. Ringing ears could be associated with other vestibular disorders such as superior canal dehiscence and Ménière's disease, but not in VM. The frequency, pathophysiological contributors, and clinical characteristics of this symptom in individuals with VM will be explored in this review.
