Effect of signal processing strategy and stimulation type on speech and auditory perception in adult cochlear implant users.
Article in International journal of audiology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
objectiveThe objective of this study was to investigate the effects of signal processing strategy on speech understanding and auditory function for adult cochlear implant (CI) users with a focus on the effects of sequential versus paired stimulation.
designWithin-subjects, repeated measures design was utilised to compare performance between processing strategies and stimulation type on various measures of auditory function and subjective sound quality. Testing with subsequent strategies was completed after a total familiarisation time of two weeks. STUDY SAMPLE: Ten post-lingually deafened adult CI users were recruited from a clinical population. Participants had a minimum of 13 months CI experience. Ages ranged from 25-78 years. All participants had long-term experience with the optima strategy; eight with sequential stimulation and two with paired stimulation.
resultsWe found no statistically significant effect of processing strategy. We observed an effect of stimulation type with sequential stimulation yielding significantly higher performance than paired stimulation for speech understanding in quiet and in noise, and subjective estimates of sound quality. No significant differences were noted across strategy or stimulation for music perception, spectral resolution or temporal resolution.
conclusionsMany patients utilise paired stimulation - the default stimulation type in the clinical software; however, sequential stimulation yielded significantly higher outcomes on multiple measures.
