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

Brain reserve is a topic of great interest to researchers in aging medicine field. Some individuals retain well-preserved cognitive function until they fulfill their lives despite significant brain pathology. One concept that explains this paradox is the reserve hypothesis, including brain reserve that assumes a virtual ability to mitigate the effects of neuropathological changes and reduce the effects on clinical symptoms flexibly and efficiently by making complete use of the cognitive and compensatory processes. One of the surrogate measures of reserve capacity is brain volume. Evidence that dementia and hearing loss are interrelated has been steadily accumulating, and age-related hearing loss is one of the most promising modifiable risk factors of dementia. Research focused on the imaging analysis of the aged brain relative to auditory function has been gradually increasing. Several morphological studies have been conducted to understand the relationship between hearing loss and brain volume. In this mini review, we provide a brief overview of the concept of brain reserve, followed by a small review of studies addressing brain morphology and hearing loss/hearing compensation, including the findings obtained from our previous study that hearing loss after middle age could affect hippocampal and primary auditory cortex atrophy.
