Vestibular contributions to linear motion perception.
Article in Experimental brain research, 2024. 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
Vestibular contributions to linear motion (i.e., translation) perception mediated by the otoliths have yet to be fully characterized. To quantify the maximal extent that non-vestibular cues can contribute to translation perception, we assessed vestibular perceptual thresholds in two patients with complete bilateral vestibular ablation to compare to our data in 12 young (< 40 years), healthy controls. Vestibular thresholds were assessed for naso-occipital ("x-translation"), inter-aural ("y-translation"), and superior-inferior ("z-translation") translations in three body orientations (upright, supine, side-lying). Overall, in our patients with bilateral complete vestibular loss, thresholds were elevated ~ 2-45 times relative to healthy controls. No systematic differences in vestibular perceptual thresholds were noted between motions that differed only with respect to their orientation relative to the head (i.e., otoliths) in patients with bilateral vestibular loss. In addition, bilateral loss patients tended to show a larger impairment in the perception of earth-vertical translations (i.e., motion parallel to gravity) relative to earth-horizontal translations, which suggests increased contribution of the vestibular system for earth-vertical motions. However, differences were also noted between the two patients. Finally, with the exception of side-lying x-translations, no consistent effects of body orientation in our bilateral loss patients were seen independent from those resulting from changes in the plane of translation relative to gravity. Overall, our data confirm predominant vestibular contributions to whole-body direction-recognition translation tasks and provide fundamental insights into vestibular contributions to translation motion perception.
