Quality of life in children with cochlear implants in Kazakhstan.
Article in BMC pediatrics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
backgroundAlthough cochlear implantation (CI) has been performed in Kazakhstan since 2007 little is known about quality of life of patients after CI. The aim of this study was to assess the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of Kazakhstani children after CI.
methodsAltogether, 53 families with a child using a cochlear implant for at least 1 year participated in the study between July 20, 2019 and February 20, 2020 at the Audiological Сenter of Almaty, Kazakhstan. The parents/caregivers completed the "Children with Cochlear Implants: Parental Perspectives (CCIPP)" questionnaire.
results'Well-being and happiness' subdomain of the HRQoL yielded the highest ratings. 'Communication', 'general functioning', 'self-reliance', and 'supporting the child' subdomains each achieved significant (p < 0.01) associations with all HRQoL subdomains. There were positive correlations between language used by the parent who completed the questionnaire (Kazakh or Russian) and three HRQoL subdomains, including 'well-being and happiness', 'supporting the child' and 'social relations'.
conclusionParents/caregivers reported high quality of life in all HRQoL subdomains. Further research in this area with more detailed socio-demographic and medical history data is required to identify quality of life predictors in children after cochlear implantation.
