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 hearing listeners use binaural cues-interaural time differences (ITDs) and interaural level differences (ILDs)-for localization and segregation of sound sources in the horizontal plane. Cochlear implant users now often receive two implants (bilateral cochlear implants [BiCIs]) rather than one, with the goal to provide access to these cues. However, BiCI listeners often experience difficulty with binaural tasks. Most BiCIs use independent sound processors at each ear; it has often been suggested that such independence may degrade the transmission of binaural cues, particularly ITDs. Here, we report empirical measurements of binaural cue transmission via BiCIs implementing a common "
