Gait and Postural Control Characteristics among Individuals with Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo: A Scoping Review
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is a common peripheral vestibular disorder. Besides vertigo, unsteadiness is a common subjective complaint. This study aims to gain an overview of gait and postural control changes among individuals with BPPV compared to healthy individuals. Relevant case-control studies were searched from their inception until April 2020 using the Scopus, Web of Science and Science Direct databases. Two independent reviewers assessed the methodological quality using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) for case-control studies. A total of 15 studies which satisfied the eligibility criteria were included. The findings suggest evidence of gait and postural control alteration characterized by slower gait speed, reduced gait velocity, increased anterior-posterior centre of pressure, and increased sway velocity compared to controls. Individuals with BPPV showed evidence of gait and postural control alteration. Future exploration on this issue is vital to support gait and postural control alteration among individuals with BPPV.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
