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

Hearing is a special sense needed for appropriate mental, speech and language development and academic performance. Even among normal babies, 50% of cases of hearing loss are missed out if screening protocol is not followed. In this study, we assess the hearing of all neonates born and brought to the tertiary care hospital, and also find out how many well babies with hearing loss would have been missed if this screening had not been done. Hence, the study aims to estimate the prevalence of neonatal hearing loss and study the associated risk factors. Neonates (N = 1559) attended the outpatient department of paediatrics were included. A detailed history of the neonates with special emphasis on prenatal, natal, postnatal, family history, and maternal risk factors were elicited. Three-stage hearing testing protocol was followed with transient evoked otoacoustic emission testing, a gold standard test for stage 1 and 2 and brainstem evoked response audiometry for stage 3. Of 1559 neonates, 138 had hearing loss. History of drug intake, order of the child, place of delivery and maternal history were the significant factors associated with hearing loss in neonates. Bivariate analysis revealed order of child, maternal history, and history of drug taken were the significant factors affecting the hearing loss in the neonates (
