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

Acoustic trauma damages inner ear neural structures including cochlear hair cells which result in hearing loss and neurotransmitter imbalances within the synapses of the central auditory pathway. Disruption of GABA/glutamate levels underlies, tinnitus, a phantom perception of sound that persists post-exposure to blast noise which may manifest in tandem with acute/chronic loss of hearing. Many putative theories explain tinnitus physiology based on indirect and direct assays in animal models and humans, although there is no comprehensive evidence to explain the phenomenon. Here, GABA/glutamate levels were imaged and quantified in a blast overpressure model of chinchillas using Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry imaging. The direct measurement from whole-brain sections identified the relative levels of GABA/glutamate in the central auditory neuraxis centers including the cochlear nucleus, inferior colliculus, and auditory cortex. These preliminary results provide insight on the homeostasis of GABA/glutamate within whole-brain sections of chinchilla for investigation of the pathomechanism of blast-induced tinnitus.
