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

The identity of a speech sound can be affected by the long-term spectrum of a preceding stimulus. Poor spectral resolution of cochlear implants (CIs) may affect such context effects. Here, spectral contrast effects on a phoneme category boundary were investigated in CI users and normal-hearing (NH) listeners. Surprisingly, larger contrast effects were observed in CI users than in NH listeners, even when spectral resolution in NH listeners was limited via vocoder processing. The results may reflect a different weighting of spectral cues by CI users, based on poorer spectral resolution, which in turn may enhance some spectral contrast effects.
