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
purposeBoth vestibular neuronitis (VN) and Meniere's disease (MD) have great impact on quality of life and are associated with a significant number of sick leave days absent from work. The aim was to assess labor market participation rate one year after hospital diagnosis of VN and MD and the use of rehabilitation measures. STUDY
designNationwide register-based cohort study including patients with VN (n = 1,341) and MD (n = 843) and control persons matched in 1:5 with a VN cohort control (n = 6,683) and MD cohort control (n = 4,209).
resultsCompared to control persons, VN patients were more likely to be single, have higher income, and a higher Charlson comorbidity index score. MD patients had a higher level of education and a higher Charlson index compared to control persons. One year after patients were diagnosed with VN, no significant difference in labor market participation was observed (p = 0.88). However, MD patients had a 10.4% reduced probability of possessing a full-time job one year after diagnosis compared to matched control persons (58.1 ± 0.5% vs. 68.5 ± 0.5%, p < 0.001). Both VN and MD patients consulted otorhinolaryngologists, general practitioners, and physiotherapists more than control persons both before and after the initial diagnosis (p < 0.01). In addition, MD patients also consulted psychologists more frequently before and after diagnosis of the disease (p < 0.01).
conclusionIntrahospital diagnosed MD increases the risk of leaving the labor market in opposition to VN. Both MD and VN are associated with significant expenses to the Danish health care system from the use of public rehabilitation measures and medical consultations.
