Auditory neurophysiology reveals central nervous system dysfunction in HIV-infected individuals.
Article in Clinical neurophysiology : official journal of the International Federation of Clinical Neurophysiology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
objectiveTo test the hypothesis that human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) affects auditory-neurophysiological functions.
methodsA convenience sample of 68 HIV+ and 59 HIV- normal-hearing adults was selected from a study set in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. The speech-evoked frequency-following response (FFR), an objective measure of auditory function, was collected. Outcome measures were FFRs to the fundamental frequency (F0) and to harmonics corresponding to the first formant (F1), two behaviorally relevant cues for understanding speech.
resultsThe HIV+ group had weaker responses to the F1 than the HIV- group; this effect generalized across multiple stimuli (d = 0.59). Responses to the F0 were similar between groups.
conclusionsAuditory-neurophysiological responses differ between HIV+ and HIV- adults despite normal hearing thresholds. SIGNIFICANCE: The FFR may reflect HIV-associated central nervous system dysfunction that manifests as disrupted auditory processing of speech harmonics corresponding to the first formant.
