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

backgroundBenign paroxysmal positional vertigo is the most common peripheral vestibular disorder and is currently treated by many types of repositioning maneuvers. A simplification of this procedure would be desirable. A new, anatomically realistic, 3-dimensional computational simulator of the human labyrinth provides a novel insight to evaluate the viability of any new maneuver. The purpose of this study is to propose a single maneuver with potential to treat canalolithiasis-type benign paroxysmal positional vertigo of any individual canal, or even multiple canals on the same side, based on a 3-dimensional model.

methodsThe benign paroxysmal positional vertigo Viewer, a 3-dimensional model of the human labyrinth, was used to analyze a "Universal Repositioning Maneuver."

resultThrough the gravity vector, the expected position of the otoliths was demonstrated by moving the model through a single sequence of head positions, successfully promoting otolith migration from the three semicircular canals to the utricular cavity, either individually or together.

conclusionThe analysis with the 3-dimensional model predicts the effectiveness of the Universal Repositioning Maneuver for the resolution of each single canal or multiple-canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo canalolithiasis, making treatment much more straightforward.
