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: The objectives of this study were to evaluate the role of oxidative stress in benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) by measuring urinary 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), 8-hydroxy-guanosine (8-OHG), and 8-hydroxy-guanine levels. Methods: Thirty-one adult female patients diagnosed with BPPV were included in this study. Patients with central pathologies and other peripheral causes of vertigo were excluded from the study. The patients were evaluated for oxidative stress during and after the BPPV attack with blood samples and spot urine tests. Depression, anxiety, and stress scale (DASS) questionnaire was used to evaluate emotional stress. A control group consisting of 30 age-matched healthy women was formed. Results: Urinary oxidative stress values during the attack were significantly higher than the post-treatment group and the healthy control group (p<0.05). There was no significant difference between the urinary oxidative stress values of the BPPV group after treatment and the healthy control group (p>0.05). DASS scores were significantly higher during the attack and after the treatment compared to the healthy control group (p<0.05). Conclusion: The increase in spot urinary 8-OHdG, 8-OHG, and 8-hydroxy-guanine levels can be used as a biomarker for oxidative stress in patients with BPPV. Furthermore, emotional stress can also trigger BPPV attacks by increasing oxidative stress.
