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

Band importance functions estimate the relative contribution of individual acoustic frequency bands to speech intelligibility. Previous studies of band importance in listeners with cochlear implants have used experimental maps and direct stimulation. Here, band importance was estimated for clinical maps with acoustic stimulation. Listeners with cochlear implants had band importance functions that relied more heavily on lower frequencies and showed less cross-listener consistency than in listeners with normal hearing. The intersubject variability observed here indicates that averaging band importance functions across listeners with cochlear implants, as has been done in previous studies, may not be meaningful. Additionally, band importance functions of listeners with normal hearing for vocoded speech that either did or did not simulate spread of excitation were not different from one another, suggesting that additional factors beyond spread of excitation are necessary to account for changes in band importance in listeners with cochlear implants.
