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

purposeCardiovascular risk factors, including metabolic syndrome (MetS) components, were reported as possible risk factors of sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL). The objective of this study was to evaluate the relationship between MetS (and its components) and SSNHL.

methodsEighty-one SSNHL patients and 243 sex-, aged-matched controls participated from January 2018 to July 2019. The participants included 176 (54.3%) men and 148 (45.7%) women. The correlation between Mets components, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, and the onset of SSNHL was analyzed using used multivariate conditional logistic regression analysis.

resultsA total 12 patients (14.8%) with SSNHL and 27 subjects (11.1%) in control group had MetS (p > 0.05). The rate of low levels of high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C), hypertriglyceridemia, and hypertension was significantly higher in the SSNHL group than those in the control group (p < 0.05). A trend of odds SSNHL was observed with increasing the number of MetS components (p < 0.001). The multivariable analysis revealed that the rate of hypertriglyceridemia and low HDL-C concentration was significantly higher in the SSNHL groups compared to the controls.

conclusionsHypertriglyceridemia and low levels of HDL-C may be important factors in the pathogenesis of SSNHL, and should be assessed during the investigation of patients with this condition.
