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

Objective: There is no test parameter with high sensitivity and specificity for the diagnosis of motion sickness. The aim of this study was to demonstrate a correlation between vestibular function tests and motion sickness. In addition, our secondary aim is to evaluate the sensitivity of the skull vibration-induced nystagmus test (SVINT) in the diagnosis of motion sickness. Methods: A total of 44 young adults aged 19-25 who had no hearing loss, complaints of dizziness/vertigo, or any diagnosed neurological disease were included. According to the motion sickness susceptibility questionnaire-short form (MSSQ-SF), participants were divided into the motion sickness group (21±1.38 years) and control group (20.5±1.18 years). Mean MSSQ-SF score for the motion sickness group is 78.18±12.2 and for control group 19.09±17.08. Ocular and cervical vestibular evoked myogenic potential tests, SVINT, video head impulse test, and oculomotor tests were performed. Results: The only significant difference between the groups was in n1-p1 amplitudes in the left ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potential test (p=0.014). None of the other parameters differed between the two groups (p>0.05). Conclusions: There was no significant relationship between motion sickness susceptibility and the results of any vestibular function test. Performing diagnostic tests for motion sickness in an environment that creates significant sensory conflict may yield different results. This study contributes to the literature in terms of evaluating the vestibular system using a comprehensive test battery and is the first to use the SVINT test in motion sickness.
