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
purposeThe aim of the present study was to characterize the HIMP and SHIMP test findings in individuals with vestibular migraine.
methodThe study comprised two groups- group I consisted of twenty five adults diagnosed with Vestibular migraine, and group II comprised twenty-five age matched healthy individuals. HIMP & SHIMP were administered using the ICS impulse system for both groups.
resultsMann-Whitney U test revealed a significant difference (p< 0.05) in VOR gain and VOR suppression gain between the vestibular migraine and healthy individuals. All the subjects in the vestibular migraine group manifested either of the four patterns of anti-compensatory saccades (ACS): (a) bilaterally absent ACS, (b) bilaterally scattered ACS or (c) typical ACS on one side with scattered ACS on the other side (d) unilaterally absent ACS. On the other hand, all the healthy individuals exhibited the presence of an organised ACS bilaterally.
conclusionVOR pathway is affected in individuals with vestibular migraine. Also, various patterns of ACS are more effective in identifying the subtle vestibular lesion in vestibular migraine. These patterns are useful in differentiating vestibular migraine from healthy individuals.
