Effects of Kampo medicine hangebyakujutsutemmato on persistent postural-perceptual dizziness: A retrospective pilot study.
Article in World journal of clinical cases, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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.
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
backgroundPersistent postural-perceptual dizziness (PPPD) is a functional disorder, typically preceded by acute vestibular disorders. It is characterized by a shift in processing spatial orientation information, to favor visual over vestibular and somatosensory inputs, and a failure of higher cortical mechanisms. To date, no therapies for PPPD have been approved. Kampo medicine hangebyakujutsutemmato (HBT) has been reported to alleviate disturbances of equilibrium. We hypothesized that HBT would be a beneficial treatment for PPPD.
aimTo examine the efficacy of HBT for the treatment of PPPD.
methodsPatients with PPPD were enrolled and divided into two groups: The HBT group (
resultsThirty-eight outpatients were included in this study, of which 14 patients (3 men, 11 women; mean age, 63.5 ± 15.9 years) received treatment without HBT, and 24 (1 man, 23 women; mean age, 58.2 ± 18.7 years) received combination treatment with HBT. Following HBT treatment, NPQ scores decreased significantly (baseline 40.1 ± 10.0
conclusionHBT may be an effective adjunct therapy for PPPD. Patients with autonomic dysfunction, unstable balance, semicircular canal paresis, anxiety, and poor sleep quality may be high responders to HBT.
