Effects of age and hearing loss on overshoot.
Article in The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
The detection of a brief, sinusoidal probe in a long broadband, simultaneous masker improves as the probe is delayed from the masker's onset. This improvement ("overshoot") may be mediated by a reduction in cochlear amplifier gain over the timecourse of the masker via the medial olivocochlear (MOC) reflex. Overshoot was measured in younger adults with normal hearing and in older adults with normal and impaired hearing to test the hypothesis that aging and cochlear hearing loss result in abnormal overshoot, consistent with changes in certain structures along the MOC pathway. Overshoot decreased with increasing quiet probe thresholds and was only minimally influenced by increasing age. Marked individual differences in overshoot were observed due to differences in masking thresholds for probes presented near the masker's onset. Model simulations support the interpretation that reduced overshoot in hearing-impaired listeners is due to limited cochlear amplifier gain and therefore less gain to adjust over the timecourse of the masker. Similar overshoot among younger and older adults with normal hearing suggests that age-related changes to mechanisms underlying overshoot do not result in significant differences in overshoot among younger and older adults with normal hearing.
