Curing Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) Through Telehealth: A Case Series.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is a common medical condition in which the patient feels a spinning sensation when making certain head movements. There is evidence to support those free-floating calcium crystals in the semi-circular canals (the inner ear) may be the cause. BPPV can be a disabling condition. It can be easily diagnosed after taking a careful history and performing bedside examinations. BPPV can be treated successfully through a specific set of physical maneuvers leading to the removal of these crystals from the inner ear. We present three cases of BPPV, living in three different countries, treated successfully using telehealth via Zoom. This approach can be a particularly useful consultation stand during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.
