Self-Reported Measures Have a Stronger Association With Dizziness-Related Handicap Compared With Physical Tests in Persons With Persistent Dizziness.

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
Background: Associations between dizziness-related handicap and a variety of self-reported measures have been reported. However, research regarding associations between dizziness-related handicap and aspects of functioning that includes both physical tests and self-reported measures is scarce. Objective: The purpose of the study was to describe the variations in signs and symptoms in people with persistent dizziness using physical tests and self-reported outcomes across three severity levels of the Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI) and investigate their associations with the DHI. Method: Participants with persistent dizziness ( Results: With increasing severity levels of DHI, the participants demonstrated worse performance on most of the physical tests (preferred and fast gait velocity, dizziness intensity after head movements), presented with worse scores on the self-reported measures (avoidance behavior, fear of bodily sensation, fear of fear itself, psychological distress, fatigue, dizziness severity, quality of life). After adjusting for age and sex, significant associations were found between total DHI and avoidance behavior, psychological distress, dizziness severity, and quality of life, but not with any of the physical tests, explaining almost 56% of the variance of the DHI total score. Conclusion: There was a trend toward worse scores on physical tests and self-reported measurements with increasing DHI severity level. The DHI seems to be a valuable tool in relation to several self-reported outcomes; however, several signs and symptoms may not be detected by the DHI, and thus, a combination of outcomes should be utilized when examining patients with persistent dizziness.
