A Bibliometric Review of Residency Theses on Vertigo in Türkiye.
Article in Turkish archives of otorhinolaryngology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Objective: In our study we analyzed the residency theses on vertigo in Türkiye by year, subject, and specialty with the aim of identifying academic trends. Methods: A bibliometric review was conducted using the National Thesis Database (1972-2025). The search was performed with the keywords vertigo, vestibular, dizziness, and Ménière. Only medical specialization theses were included. Titles and abstracts were screened, and eligible theses were classified by year, specialty, and topic. Results: A total of 180 theses were identified. The highest number of theses was produced between 2016 and 2020, followed by a decline after 2021. In the study period 103 theses were published in otorhinolaryngology, 29 in neurology, 10 in physical medicine and rehabilitation, 23 in emergency and family medicine, and 15 in other specialties. While studies showed an apparent increase in vestibular testing and rehabilitation in recent decades, these emphasized etiology and diagnostic approaches in the earlier years. Conclusion: Most theses on vertigo were produced between 2016 and 2020, with otorhinolaryngology providing the most significant contribution. Over time, interest shifted from etiology and diagnosis towards vestibular testing and rehabilitation. The findings confirm that vertigo is a central subject in otorhinolaryngology, but also attracts growing attention in neurology, physical medicine and rehabilitation, emergency medicine, and family medicine.
