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

Under the microgravity of the International Space Station, many of the normal processes that determine the perceptual upright on Earth are disrupted. For example, somatosensory cues are absent and an applied physical linear acceleration can provide an artificial "gravity" reference. Here, we hypothesized that visual linear acceleration could also be interpreted as an orientation cue in microgravity. Using virtual reality, we subjected twelve astronauts experiencing long-duration exposure to microgravity to visually simulated accelerating linear self-motion along a virtual corridor at 0.8 m•s
