Animal model studies yield translational solutions for cochlear drug delivery.
Review in Hearing research, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
The field of hearing and deafness research is about to enter an era where new cochlear drug delivery methodologies will become more innovative and plentiful. The present report provides a representative review of previous studies where efficacious results have been obtained with animal models, primarily rodents, for protection against acute hearing loss such as acoustic trauma due to noise overexposure, antibiotic use and cancer chemotherapies. These approaches were initiated using systemic injections or oral administrations of otoprotectants. Now, exciting new options for local drug delivery, which opens up the possibilities for utilization of novel otoprotective drugs or compounds that might not be suitable for systemic use, or might interfere with the efficacious actions of chemotherapeutic agents or antibiotics, are being developed. These include interesting use of nanoparticles (with or without magnetic field supplementation), hydrogels, cochlear micropumps, and new transtympanic injectable compounds, sometimes in combination with cochlear implants.
