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

The occurrence of unilateral sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) during school age is relatively rare and accounts for approximately 6% of all deafness in childhood. We present two cases involving children who were diagnosed with SNHL associated with Sjögren's syndrome (SS). Case 1: An eight-year-old girl with an approximately two-year clinical history of gradual hearing loss was diagnosed with SNHL associated with SS based on histological findings of inflammation in the salivary glands and the presence of serum anti-Sjögren's syndrome-A antibody. Case 2: An eight-year-old boy with acute idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura in whom unilateral hearing loss, which was not associated with any problems in daily life, was detected during hospitalization and who was finally diagnosed with SNHL and SS. Steroid treatment was ineffective for both patients. The previously unrecognized combination of SNHL with SS should be considered in the diagnosis of unilateral SNHL, even in children.
