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

objectiveTo explore alterations in functional connectivity (FC) focusing on hippocampal subfields in benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) patients with residual dizziness (RD) after successful canalith repositioning procedure (CRP).

methodsWe conducted resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) on 95 BPPV patients, comprising 50 patients with RD and 45 without. Seed-to-voxel and seed-to-seed analyses were employed to examine changes in FC between the two groups. The hippocampal subfields, including the bilateral dentate gyrus (DG), cornu ammonis (CA), entorhinal cortex (EC), subiculum, and hippocampal amygdalar transition area (HATA) were selected as seeds. Additionally, we assessed the relationship between abnormal FC and clinical symptoms.

resultsSeed-to-voxel analysis indicated that, compared to non-RD patients, those with RD exhibited decreased FC between the right DG and right parietal operculum cortex, right HATA and right precuneus, left HATA and left precuneus, left EC and cerebellar vermis 8/-crus 1, and between the left subiculum and left angular gyrus. Conversely, we observed increased FC between the left CA and left lingual gyrus, as well as between the right CA and right fusiform gyrus in RD patients. Furthermore, these variations in FC were significantly correlated with clinical features including the duration of RD and scores on the Hamilton Anxiety Scale and Dizziness Handicap Inventory.

conclusionBPPV patients with RD exhibited altered FC between hippocampal subfields and brain regions associated with spatial orientation and navigation, vestibular and visual processing, and emotional regulation. These findings offer novel insights into the pathophysiological mechanisms in BPPV patients with RD following successful CRP.
