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

objectiveVestibular cerebellar evoked potentials (VsCEPs) are short-latency, vestibular-dependent responses recorded from electrodes placed superficially near the cerebellum. This study aimed to replicate previous findings and further explore optimal recording parameters for air-conducted VsCEPs.

designResponses were collected similarly to previous investigations for comparability. Two reference electrode locations (nose and contralateral earlobe) were compared. STUDY SAMPLE: VsCEPs were measured in 15 healthy individuals without prior history of otologic or neurological impairment (mean age = 24.7; sd = 3.8, 2 male).

resultsWe report a response rate that never exceeded 60%. Responses were most often present over the posterior scalp contralateral to the stimulated ear. A small but significant latency difference was found between reference locations. Larger amplitudes were observed over midline and contralateral areas for the left ear only. There was no difference in amplitude between reference locations.

conclusionsThe low recordability and high inter-subject variability suggests VsCEPs are not yet suitable for clinical application. However, results should be treated with caution as the stimulus level used in the current study was lower than previous investigations. Thus, we may be below the response threshold of subjects. Future investigations should explore other parameters to improve recordability and stability of VsCEPs.
