One-year prevalence and clinical characteristics in chronic dizziness: The 2019-2020 Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.
Article in Frontiers in neurology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Introduction: In this cross-sectional study, we investigated the 1-year prevalence and related factors in the general population with an experience of chronic dizziness. Methods: This study analyzed persons ( Results: Of individuals over 40 years, 25.3% of the general population (61.6% females) reported either dizziness or imbalance for the past year. Moreover, 4.8% of the patients reported they suffered from chronic dizziness or imbalance for more than 3 months. In multiple regression analysis, patients with chronic dizziness were older, females, had lower body mass index (BMI), had stress awareness, and had a history of tinnitus within 1 year (>5 min per episode). Relative to normal body weight, both overweight and mild obesity (obesity stages 1 and 2) were associated with a significantly lower risk of chronic dizziness. Overweight, obesity stage 1, and obesity stage 2 had odds ratios of 0.549 [95% confidence interval (CI), 0.332-0.910], 0.445 (95% CI, 0.273-0.727), and 0.234 (95% CI, 0.070-0.779), respectively. Conclusions: In this study, the prevalence of chronic dizziness in the general population was 4.8%. Our study demonstrated that overweight and mild obesity were independently associated with a lower risk of chronic dizziness in adults for the past year. Therefore, the optimal BMI for patients with dizziness should be defined and managed according to an integrated care pathway.
