Potential risk factors of persistent postural-perceptual dizziness: a pilot study.
Article in Journal of neurology, 2022. 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
backgroundPersistent postural-perceptual dizziness (PPPD) unifies the main characteristics of chronic subjective dizziness, visual vertigo and related diseases, which is a common chronic disease in neurology. At present, the pathology of PPPD is not fully understood.
objectiveIn this single-center retrospective case series review, we aim to investigate the potential risk factors of PPPD.
methodsEighty inpatients diagnosed with PPPD were recruited with 81 apparently healthy controls. Patient-specific clinico-radiological data were collected from both groups. Conditions of hypertension, diabetes, smoking, and drinking were derived from medical history. Blood test results were recorded including total cholesterol, triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, fibrinogen, vitamin B12, folic acid, total cholesterol, triglyceride, and folate level. The subjects were examined by carotid artery CTA and cranial MRI, and the imaging findings of carotid atherosclerosis (CAS), white matter hyperintensities (WMHs) and lacunar infarction (LI) were recorded. Binary logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the difference between the case and control groups. Significance was defined as p value less than 0.05.
resultsThe prevalence rate of hypertension in the case group was significantly higher than that in the control group, and the detection rates of CAS, WMHs, and LI in the case group were significantly higher than those in the control group (p < 0.05 for all).
conclusionHypertension, CAS, WMHs, and LI are associated with PPPD, which may be potential risk factors for its development.
