Music Appreciation of Cochlear Implant Users versus Normal Hearing Individuals.

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
Introduction: Cochlear implants (CI) provide speech perception for patients with sensorineural hearing impairment; nonetheless, listening to music is a daunting challenge for them. The present study aimed to compare Iranian CI users and normal hearing (NH) controls in terms of musical habits and appreciation and investigate the possible effect of background variables. Materials and Methods: A total of 37 CI users who underwent surgery at least 18 months before the study and 59 NH listeners were enrolled in this study. The participants were assigned to two age groups: group A (patients ≥15 years old) and group B (patients <15 years old). They were asked to complete the questionnaires to assess their music engagement. Results: In group A, the mean score of music importance was significantly higher in CI users (8.7±2.1), as compared to that in NH subjects (5.8±2.3) (P=0.005). Participation in professional musical training and singing with music was not significantly different between the groups. In group B, the mean score of desire for music was not significantly different between CI users (8.2±1.8) and NH subjects (7.7±2.0). They participated in professional musical training and had a reaction to music almost equally. Singing with music was significantly less common in the CI group (CI 16[61.5%], NH (40[85.1%]) (P=0.023). Selected background variables had no significant effect on the music tendency and habits of CI users. Conclusions: Iranian CI users tended to have a high level of music appreciation in both adult and children groups. Moreover, CI users and NH controls did not significantly differ in the importance of music, devoted time, participation in musical activities, and musical habits.
