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

Sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) is a sudden-onset hearing impairment that rapidly develops within 72 h and is mostly unilateral. Only a few patients can be identified with a defined cause by routine clinical examinations. Recently, some studies have shown that unilateral SSNHL is associated with alterations in the central nervous system. However, little is known about the topological organization of white matter (WM) networks in unilateral SSNHL patients in the acute phase. In this study, 145 patients with SSNHL and 91 age-, gender-, and education-matched healthy controls were evaluated using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and graph theoretical approaches. The topological properties of WM networks, including global and nodal parameters, were investigated. At the global level, SSNHL patients displayed decreased clustering coefficient, local efficiency, global efficiency, normalized clustering coefficient, normalized characteristic path length, and small-worldness and increased characteristic path length (
