Development and verification of a nomogram for recurrence risk of Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo in middle-aged and older populations.
Article 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 3 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
Background: Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) is the most common cause of peripheral vertigo, with frequent recurrence, particularly pronounced among middle-aged and elderly populations, significantly affecting patients' quality of life. This study aimed to identify predictive factors for recurrence in middle-aged and older patients with BPPV and to develop a nomogram prediction model based on these predictors. Methods: This retrospective study included 582 participants aged ≥45 years who were selected from the electronic medical records system of the First Hospital of Changsha between March 2021 and March 2024. Randomly chosen participants ( Results: According to findings from least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) binomial regression and logistic regression screening, older age, higher levels of uric acid (UA) and homocysteine (HCY), diabetes, migraine, anxiety, and insomnia were identified as independent factors associated with an increased recurrence risk of BPPV. A nomogram model for predicting recurrence risk was developed based on these predictors. The nomogram achieved an AUC (C-statistic) of 0.8974 (95% CI: 0.8603-0.9345) in the training group and 0.8829 (95% CI: 0.8253-0.9406) in the validation group. Calibration curves, after 1,000 bootstrap resamples, demonstrated good agreement between the predicted and actual probabilities in the development and validation cohorts. DCA indicated that the nomogram had clinical utility. Conclusion: The nomogram model incorporating age, UA, HCY, diabetes, migraine, anxiety status, and insomnia demonstrated a strong predictive capability for estimating the probability of BPPV recurrence in middle-aged and elderly patients. This tool is valuable for identifying individuals at high risk of BPPV recurrence and can aid physicians in making informed treatment decisions aimed at reducing recurrence rates.
