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

introductionSensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) has been reported in association with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, SNHL as an extraintestinal manifestation of IBD is frequently underreported. In the present study, we compared the prevalence and severity of SNHL among patients with IBD-ulcerative colitis (IBD-UC) in remission with controls to find out any association between SNHL and IBD-UC in remission compared to controls.

methodsThis single-center hospital-based prospective observational study included outdoor patients with IBD-UC in remission and healthy age- and sex-matched controls. Eligible patients and healthy participants were subjected to a battery of audiological tests (otoscopy, tympanometry and pure tone audiometry [PTN]) after thorough systemic and ear, nose and throat (ENT) examination.

resultsA total of 100 patients were enrolled in the study: 50 in IBD-UC in the remission group and 50 in the control group. None of the demographic variables (age, gender, residence and habits) were significantly different between the two groups. Otoscopy and tympanometry were normal in all patients and controls. The difference between the two groups in respect to frequency and severity of SNHL on PTA and in respect to unilateral and bilateral distribution of the hearing loss was not statistically significant.

conclusionThere is no statistically significant difference in frequency and severity of SNHL between patients with ulcerative colitis in remission and healthy age- and sex-matched controls.
