Extended high-frequency audiometry as early detection of hearing loss in primary Sjögren syndrome.
Article in Clinical rheumatology, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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 aim of the study is to evaluate hearing function by extended high-frequency audiometry in primary Sjögren Syndrome (pSS) and to correlate it with disease activity. All patients diagnosed with pSS were recruited within 1 year. Patients underwent otologic evaluation, extended high-frequency audiometry, tympanogram, and the ESSPRI scale evaluation. A total of 63 (60 female and 3 male) patients with mean age 49.5 ± 9.9 years with pSS were included. We detected a hearing loss prevalence of 95.2% (60 patients) in both ears in very high frequencies (10000-16,000 Hz). The hearing loss of all patients was sensorineural. There was no significant difference between the degree of disease activity and the hearing thresholds. We enrolled 188 subjects with a mean age of 47.20 ± 9.7 years as a healthy control group. We compared the hearing thresholds of both ears of patients with pSS versus the healthy control group and observed a significant difference in frequencies above 500 Hz. Sensorineural hearing loss was found in pSS patients in frequencies above 4000 Hz. Sensorineural hearing loss was highly prevalent in pSS patients, predominantly in very high frequencies. We claim that sensorineural hearing loss could be an associated symptom of primary Sjögren syndrome and suggest further research to support this conclusion.
