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

Background: Osteoporosis may increase the risk of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). However, direct evidence remains elusive. Aims: To analyze the correlation between bone mineral density (BMD) and vestibular function in elderly patients with BPPV. Methods: Two hundred ninety-one idiopathic, unilateral BPPV patients aged 50-80 years were consecutively enrolled in our vertigo outpatient clinic. All the participants underwent BMD, cervical, and ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potential (c/oVEMP) evaluations. The associations between BMD and VEMP results were investigated. Results: Eighty-one patients (27.8%) were diagnosed with osteoporosis, 120 patients (41.2%) had osteopenia, and 90 (30.9%) exhibited normal BMD. Among BPPV patients, abnormal BMD demonstrated a marginal correlation with oVEMP response ( Conclusion: Our study provides further evidence that osteoporosis may contribute to utricular dysfunction associated with the occurrence of BPPV.
