The outcome of cochlear implantation among children with genetic syndromes.
Article in European archives of oto-rhino-laryngology : official journal of the European Federation of Oto-Rhino-Laryngological Societies (EUFOS) : affiliated with the German Society for Oto-Rhino-Laryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
objectiveTo assess the outcome and efficacy of cochlear implantation in children with genetic syndromes.
methodStudy design: case-control study.
settingA cochlear implantation tertiary referral center. PATIENTS: All pediatric cochlear implantation recipients with Waardenburg syndrome, Usher syndrome, Dandy-Walker syndrome, or albinism. A control group was appropriately matched to the syndromic group with regard to age at implantation and duration of device use.
interventionCochlear implantation.
main outcome measuresSubjects' auditory abilities, speech intelligibility, and pure tone thresholds were compared between the syndromic and non-syndromic group.
resultsA total of 25 subjects (13 syndromic and 12 non-syndromic) participated in the study. Neither auditory ability nor speech intelligibility scores differed significantly by group. The final PTA of both the groups showed normal-to-mild hearing loss: 26 dB HL in the syndromic group and 23 dB HL for the control group.
conclusionsCochlear implant recipients with genetic syndromes achieved similar levels auditory perception and speech intelligibility as their peers with a genetic syndrome. The presence of any of the genetic syndromes described herein should not be a contraindication to cochlear implant provision, as it would have a positive impact on the patients' sensory perception and lifestyle.
