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

Forward masking experiments at 4 kHz have demonstrated that preceding sound can elicit changes in masking patterns consistent with a change in cochlear gain. However, the acoustic environment is filled with complex sounds, often dominated by lower frequencies, and ipsilateral cochlear gain reduction at frequencies below 4 kHz is largely unstudied in the forward masking literature. In this experiment, the magnitude of ipsilateral cochlear gain reduction was explored at 1, 2, and 4 kHz using forward masking techniques in an effort to evaluate a range of frequencies in listeners with normal hearing. Gain reduction estimates were not significantly different at 2 and 4 kHz using two forward masking measurements. Although the frequency was a significant factor in the analysis, post hoc testing supported the interpretation that gain reduction estimates measured without a masker were not significantly different at 1, 2, and 4 kHz. A second experiment provided evidence that forward masking in this paradigm at 1 kHz cannot be explained by excitation alone. This study provides evidence of ipsilateral cochlear gain reduction in humans at frequencies below the 4 kHz region.
