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

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo has typically been reported to be the most common cause of post-traumatic dizziness. There is however paucity in the literature about other peripheral vestibular disorders post-head injury. This article provides an overview of other causes of non-positional dizziness post-head trauma from our large institutional experience. The UHN WSIB Neurotology database (n = 4291) between 1998 and 2018 was retrospectively studied for those head-injured workers presenting with non-positional peripheral vestibular disorders. All subjects had a detailed neurotological history and examination and vestibular testing including video nystagmography, video head impulse testing (or a magnetic scleral search coil study), vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials, and audiometry. Imaging studies included routine brain and high-resolution temporal bone CT scans and/or brain MRI. Based on a database of 4291 head-injured workers with dizziness, 244 were diagnosed with non-positional peripheral vertigo. Recurrent vestibulopathy (RV) was the most common cause of non-positional post-traumatic vertigo. The incidence of Meniere's disease in the post-traumatic setting did not appear greater than found in the general population. The clinical spectrum pertaining to recurrent vestibulopathy, Meniere's disease, delayed endolymphatic hydrops, drop attacks, superior semicircular canal dehiscence syndrome, and uncompensated peripheral vestibular loss are discussed.
