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

Single nucleotide polymorphisms in mitochondrial DNA, such as mitochondrial 1555 A>G (m.1555 A>G) and mitochondrial 1494 C>T (m.1494 C>T), are known to be causative mutations of nonsyndromic hearing loss following exposure to aminoglycoside antibiotics. The prevalence of the m.1555 A>G and m.1494 C>T mutations has not been reported for the general population in Japan. The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence of m.1555 A>G and m.1494 C>T mutations in a community-dwelling population in Japan in order to prevent aminoglycoside-induced hearing loss. We recruited participants older than 20 years of age to the Iwaki Health Promotion Project in 2014, 2015, and 2016, resulting in the recruitment of 1,683 participants. For each participant, we performed a hearing test and a genetic test for the m.1555 A>G and m.1494 C>T mutations using the TaqMan genotyping method. The m.1555 A>G mutation was detected in only 1 of the 1,683 participants (0.06%). This carrier of the m.1555 A>G mutation was a 69-year-old male with bilateral, symmetric, and high-frequency hearing loss. We provided genetic counseling and distributed a drug card advising him to avoid the administration of aminoglycoside antibiotics. In contrast, the m.1494 C>T mutation was not detected in this study population.
