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

Objective: To investigate the effects of intensive gaze stability training (IGST) combined with conventional drug therapy and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) therapy on hearing recovery and quality of life (QOL) in patients with bilateral vestibular dysfunction. Materials and Methods: A total of 120 patients with bilateral vestibular dysfunction admitted to our hospital from January 2019 to January 2020 were recruited and assigned to group A ( Results: The serum biochemical indexes and blood rheology indexes in group A were lower than those in group B after treatment ( Conclusion: IGST plus conventional drug therapy effectively improves the serum biochemical indexes and blood rheological indexes of patients with bilateral vestibular hypofunction, accelerates their hearing recovery process, and alleviates their clinical symptoms, thereby improving their QOL, which shows good potential in clinical application.
