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

Whole-body vestibular-evoked balance responses decrease following ~ 55 min of normobaric hypoxia. It is unclear how longer durations of hypoxia affect the vestibular control of balance at the muscle and whole-body levels. This study examined how four hours of normobaric hypoxia influenced the vestibular control of balance. Fifteen participants (4 females; 11 males) stood on a force plate with vision occluded and head rotated rightward while subjected to three blocks of binaural, bipolar stochastic electrical vestibular stimulation (EVS; 0-25 Hz, root mean square amplitude = 1.1 mA) consisting of two, 90-s trials. The relationship between EVS and anteroposterior (AP) forces or medial gastrocnemius (MG) electromyography (EMG) was estimated in the time and frequency domains at baseline (BL; 0.21 fraction of inspired oxygen-F
