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

objectiveThis study uses the multi-feature paradigm to compare the MMN responses of individuals with normal hearing thresholds, including the high frequencies with and without tinnitus.

methodsSixteen subjects with chronic subjective idiopathic tinnitus and twenty matched healthy controls were included in the study. Participants with hearing thresholds (0.125-16 kHz) less than 20 dB HL and MoCA test scores above 21 were included in the study. MMN responses and topographical maps of the responses resulting from the multi-feature MMN paradigm were recorded from 22 surface scalp electrodes. Amplitude and latency parameters of the MMN responses of five different deviants, consisting of frequency, intensity, duration, location, and silent gap, were compared between the two groups.

resultsThe amplitudes of MMN responses were lower in the tinnitus group than in the control group at Fz electrode for all deviant types. At the same time, there was no difference between the groups for MMN latencies and, no correlation was found between THI and MMN.

conclusionAccording to our results, the MMN might indicate a possible impairment in pre-attentive and automatic central auditory processing for chronic tinnitus patients. Since MMN responses in the tinnitus group differ from those of healthy individuals, it might be used as a reference for evaluating the central auditory pathways of tinnitus patients.
