Effects of Vestibular Rehabilitation with Virtual Reality in Adults with Vestibular Dysfunction: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Article in International archives of otorhinolaryngology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Introduction: Virtual reality is a tool used in the rehabilitation of neurodegenerative diseases and vestibular disorders, enabling immersion in a playful and illusory world. Objective: To determine the effects of vestibular rehabilitation with virtual reality in adults with vestibular disorders. Data Synthesis: Appropriate word combinations were selected and tailored specifically to seven electronic databases. Studies that investigated vestibular rehabilitation with virtual reality in individuals > 18-years-old and diagnosed with vestibular dysfunction were included. The risk of bias and the certainty of the evidence was assessed. A random-effects meta-analysis was performed, with a total of 18 articles included. There was an improvement in the level of confidence in balance scores between baseline and postintervention of 11.22 (95% CI = 8.55-13.88; I Conclusion: Virtual reality therapy in vestibular disorders has shown efficient results, being a useful, low-cost, and motivating tool in the treatment of these disorders.
