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

Mutant animals with a particular type of cochlear pathology are an excellent model for studying the functional role of various cells of the cochlea. In homozygous WV/WV mutant mice we found a selective loss of outer hair cells as a constant defect with no progressive degeneration of the organ of Corti. The mice were followed throughout their lives and exhibited auditory brainstem responses that were elevated to about 50 dB SPL as compared to normal control animals. Sequential temporal bone studies showed that there was a selective loss of outer hair cells throughout the entire cochlea as seen in surface preparations. The inner hair cells were present in normal numbers and appeared to be essentially normal.
