The Impact of Physical Therapy in Individuals With Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is a mechanical condition of the peripheral vestibular system. It is characterized by recurrent, short-lived episodes of vertigo caused by calcium carbonate crystals that get dislodged from the utricle and move into the semicircular canals. In this case report, a 33-year-old female presenting with complaints of neck pain and dizziness upon head movement was diagnosed with BPPV following a comprehensive evaluation, which included a thorough history, assessment, and investigations. The Dix-Hallpike maneuver was positive on the right side. The patient was then treated with canalith repositioning manuever (CRM) and conventional physiotherapy. There was a reduction in pain, improvement in range of motion, and reduction in the duration and frequency of vertigo. Therefore, it can be concluded that the application of CRM or Epley's maneuver decreases the duration and frequency of vertigo and improves quality of life.
