Vertiginous epilepsy in the pediatric population.
Review in Frontiers in neurology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Vertiginous epilepsy (VE) is a rare and underrecognized epilepsy subtype in the pediatric population. Vertiginous symptoms are the sole or predominant feature, arise from the vestibular cortex, and seizures are usually brief. The incidence is estimated to be between six and 15 percent of pediatric patients presenting with dizziness. Diagnosis is often delayed for many years following the onset of symptoms, as there are no widely accepted diagnostic criteria. Diagnostic work-up should include a detailed history, physical exam, EEG, and brain imaging with MRI. Vestibular testing is helpful if peripheral vestibulopathy is suspected. Vertiginous epilepsy can have many possible causes, but a large majority are idiopathic or suspected to be genetic. Most patients with vertiginous epilepsy achieve seizure freedom with anti-seizure medications.
