Benefits in noise from sound processor upgrade in thirty-three cochlear implant users for more than 20 years.
Article in European archives of oto-rhino-laryngology : official journal of the European Federation of Oto-Rhino-Laryngological Societies (EUFOS) : affiliated with the German Society for Oto-Rhino-Laryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
purposeSome oldest patients rehabilitated with a cochlear implant more than 20 years ago could still be upgraded with new generations of speech processor (SP). The aim of this study was to show the benefit of a recent generation of SP in this population.
methodsA monocentric prospective study was designed to evaluate the performance of 33 ancient CI22M users implanted between 1989 and 1997 and upgraded with the late compatible sound processor CP900. Performance was evaluated in quiet and noise with Framatix, an automated adaptative test.
resultsPerformance using Framatix significantly improved with the CP900, with a decrease of the median speech perception threshold of 6 dB in quiet (p < 0.05) and 5,3 dB in noise (p < 0.0005). No subjective benefit using the APHAB questionnaire was observed.
conclusionUpgrading of cochlear implant recipients who were implanted more than 20 years ago with recent compatible and new technological SP provide benefit in speech recognition in noise.
