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

Video head impulse test (vHIT) artifacts are defined as spurious elements or disturbances in the recorded data that deviate from the true vestibulo-ocular reflex response. These artifacts can arise from various sources, encompassing technological limitations, patient-specific factors, or environmental influences, introducing inaccuracies in vHIT outcomes. The absence of standardized criteria for artifact identification leads to methodological heterogeneity. This narrative review aims to comprehensively examine the challenges posed by artifacts in the vHIT. By surveying existing literature, the review seeks to elucidate the multifaceted nature of artifacts arising from technological, patient-related, evaluator-related, and environmental factors.
