[Impact of CI use and CI fitting on speech production in very early cochlear-implanted infants].

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
backgroundChildren's age at implantation is an important factor for their outcome in auditory and language skills with a cochlear implant (CI). CI use and frequency of CI fitting may also influence speech performance. Purpose of this study was to evaluate CI use and CI fitting of very early implanted infants and its potential influence on age-related speech production performance.
methodsData of 34 bilaterally cochlea-implanted infants (age at CI in months: M = 8,8; SD = 1,7) were included. During the third year of life speech production performance was evaluated and related to datalogging-based CI use and number of CI fitting sessions.
resultsAbout half of the cohort achieved speech production level within the normal range of hearing peers. Daily time of CI use was approximately 8 h. Analysis of listening environment showed that infants were exposed most of the time to quiet environment and least amount of time to speech in noise. Daily time of CI use seems to be a significant predictor of speech production, speech-exposition particularly predicts word production. Number of daily disconnection between CI-processor and implant as well as the monthly number of CI fitting sessions were not correlated with speech production.
conclusionVery early cochlear implanted infants may achieve age-appropriate speech production performance in the third year of life. Time of daily CI use in the study cohort is comparable to results of other studies. Time of daily CI use and exposure to speech seem to be important factors for early speech production. These findings should be integrated in pre- and postoperative parent counselling.
