Incremental Velocity Error as a New Treatment in Vestibular Rehabilitation (INVENT VPT) Trial: study protocol for a randomized controlled crossover trial.
Article in Trials, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03846830 (INVENT VPT), which is not on this 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.

Abstract
backgroundA clinical pattern of damage to the auditory, visual, and vestibular sensorimotor systems, known as multi-sensory impairment, affects roughly 2% of the US population each year. Within the population of US military service members exposed to mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), 15-44% will develop multi-sensory impairment following a mild traumatic brain injury. In the US civilian population, multi-sensory impairment-related symptoms are also a common sequela of damage to the vestibular system and affect ~ 300-500/100,000 population. Vestibular rehabilitation is recognized as a critical component of the management of multi-sensory impairment. Unfortunately, the current clinical practice guidelines for the delivery of vestibular rehabilitation are not evidence-based and primarily rely on expert opinion. The focus of this trial is gaze stability training, which represents the unique component of vestibular rehabilitation. The aim of the Incremental Velocity Error as a New Treatment in Vestibular Rehabilitation (INVENT VPT) trial is to assess the efficacy of a non-invasive, incremental vestibular adaptation training device for normalizing the response of the vestibulo-ocular reflex.
methodsThe INVENT VPT Trial is a multi-center randomized controlled crossover trial in which military service members with mTBI and civilian patients with vestibular hypofunction are randomized to begin traditional vestibular rehabilitation or incremental vestibular adaptation and then cross over to the alternate intervention after a prescribed washout period. Vestibulo-ocular reflex function and other functional outcomes are measured to identify the best means to improve the delivery of vestibular rehabilitation. We incorporate ecologically valid outcome measures that address the common symptoms experienced in those with vestibular pathology and multi-sensory impairment. DISCUSSION: The INVENT VPT Trial will directly impact the health care delivery of vestibular rehabilitation in patients suffering from multi-sensory impairment in three critical ways: (1) compare optimized traditional methods of vestibular rehabilitation to a novel device that is hypothesized to improve vestibulo-ocular reflex performance, (2) isolate the ideal dosing of vestibular rehabilitation considering patient burden and compliance rates, and (3) examine whether recovery of the vestibulo-ocular reflex can be predicted in participants with vestibular symptoms.
