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

Objectives: To investigate the localization diagnostic value of the ocular tilt reaction (OTR) plus head tilt subjective visual vertical (SVV) in patients with acute central vascular vertigo (ACVV). Methods: We enrolled 40 patients with acute infarction, 20 with unilateral brainstem infarction (BI) and 20 with unilateral cerebellar infarction (CI). We also included 20 patients with unilateral peripheral vestibular disorders (UPVD) as the control group. The participants completed the OTR and SVV during head tilt (±45°) within 1 week of symptom onset. Results: In patients with ACVV, including that caused by lateral medullary infarction (100%, 2/2), partial pontine infarction (21%, 3/14), and cerebellum infarction (35%, 7/20), we observed ipsiversive OTR, similar to that seen in UPVD patients (80.0%, 16/20). Some of the patients with medial medullary infarction (50%, 1/2), partial pons infarction (42%, 6/14), midbrain infarction (100%, 2/2), and partial cerebellum infarction (30.0%, 6/20) showed contraversive OTR. The skew deviation (SD) of the BI group with ACVV was significantly greater than that of the UPVD group (6.60 ± 2.70° vs. 1.80 ± 1.30°, Conclusions: The evaluation of OTR plus head tilt SVV (±45°) in vertigo patients is helpful for identifying and diagnosing ACVV, especially when SD is ≥ 3° or the E-effect is symmetrically increased.
