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
Objectives: This study aims to explore the predictive values of serum estradiol, calcium and 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] levels for benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) recurrence in postmenopausal women. Patients and methods: A total of 156 postmenopausal women (mean age: 59.5±7.4 years; range, 46 to 75 years) diagnosed with primary BPPV between January 2015 and August 2018 were included. After follow-up for one year, they were divided into non-recurrence (n=126) and recurrence groups (n=30). Fifty healthy females (mean age: 60.3±7.4 years; range, 48 to 75 years) with natural menopause for over one year were enrolled as the control group. Serum estradiol, calcium and 25(OH)D levels were compared, and their correlations in the recurrence group were analyzed by Pearson method. The predictive values of these levels for recurrence were evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic curve. Predisposing factors were determined by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. Results: Serum estradiol, calcium, and 25(OH)D levels of the control group were significantly higher than the non-recurrence and recurrence groups (p<0.05). The levels of recurrence group exceeded those of non-recurrence group (p<0.05). In recurrence group, estradiol level was positively correlated with those of calcium and 25(OH)D (r=0.7501, 0.7871, p<0.001), and calcium level was positively correlated with that of 25(OH)D (r=0.7904, p<0.001). The three levels had diagnostic values for recurrence. The maximum Youden's index of their combination was 0.476, and the corresponding prognostic index was 13.04, suggesting a higher recurrence probability. Number of repositioning, Self-Rating Depression Scale score, levels of estradiol, calcium and 25(OH)D were predisposing factors for recurrence. Conclusion: Serum estradiol, calcium, and 25(OH)D levels are significantly positively correlated in postmenopausal women with BPPV recurrence and their combination can be used to predict recurrence.
