Onset and resolution failure of recurrent benign paroxysmal positional vertigo: the role of cervical range of motion.
Article in European archives of oto-rhino-laryngology : official journal of the European Federation of Oto-Rhino-Laryngological Societies (EUFOS) : affiliated with the German Society for Oto-Rhino-Laryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 2022.

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
purposeTo explore possible associations between cervical spine mobility, measured by cervical range of motion (CROM) and a possible earlier onset of recurrent benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), as well as an increased failure rate of canalith repositioning procedures.
methodsMedical records of 749 patients (247, 253 and 249 patients with a CROM ≤ 45°, between 45.1° and 55° and > 55.1°, respectively) with a first-time diagnosis of non-traumatic BPPV were included in this retrospective study. Age, gender, canal involvement and CROM values were treated as prospective prognostic factors for time of BPPV recurrence onset (RO) and number of manoeuvres needed to achieve resolution (resolution rate, RR). A multiple regression analysis was performed.
resultsA significant increase in the incidence of recurrent BPPV was found in patients with reduced CROM (139 [56.27%;], 102 [40.31%] and 87 [34.93%], respectively, belonging to ≤ 45°, 45.1°-55° and > 55.1° subgroups; X
conclusionThe results from this retrospective analysis unveiled the previously unexplored relation between reduction in cervical spine mobility and BPPV recurrence and treatment failure. The data from this study do not indicate the mechanisms by which this comorbidity might directly cause recurrent BPPV. However, they may suggest CROM to be evaluated, in association with other known risk factors for increased susceptibility to BPPV recurrence.
