Effects of the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic on subjective tinnitus perception.
Article in The Journal of laryngology and otology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
objectiveThis study investigated the effects of the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic on tinnitus severity and quality of life in individuals with subjective tinnitus.
methodsThe study was carried out during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic. Sixty patients were evaluated with the Tinnitus Handicap Inventory and a visual analogue scale on resonance intensity and disturbance, together with questions assessing their emotional states.
resultsThere was a significant difference between the visual analogue scale and the Tinnitus Handicap Inventory scores before the pandemic and during the pandemic. It was determined that tinnitus loudness and annoyance were significantly worse in the pandemic and, consequently, that the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic negatively affected perceptions of tinnitus and quality of life.
conclusionPsychological support can affect positively the perception of tinnitus and the change in moods experienced during the pandemic. Because personal contact and quotidian activities are severely limited during the pandemic, internet-based interventions should be prioritised in tinnitus therapy.
