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

purposeThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the stability of rotary chair, video head impulse test (vHIT), and vestibular evoked myogenic potential (VEMP) responses in children with normal hearing (NH) and children with cochlear implants (CIs).

methodRetrospective analysis of 66 children (33 males,

resultsFor rotary chair (gain and phase) and vHIT (gain), linear mixed-effects models revealed that there were no significant interactions or main effects for group (CI vs. NH), time between session, gender, or age on the session difference, suggesting that the outcomes of these measures are stable across sessions. For cervical and ocular VEMP amplitude, there was a significant interaction between group and time between sessions on the session difference. Specifically, children with NH demonstrated larger amplitudes at Session 2, whereas children with CI demonstrated smaller amplitudes at Session 2. Next, test findings were classified as normal, unilaterally abnormal, or bilaterally abnormal for Sessions 1 and 2. Misclassification was defined as a mismatch of classification between sessions. Rotary chair and vHIT had the fewest misclassifications, whereas cervical VEMPs had the most misclassifications in children with CI and ocular VEMPs had the most misclassifications in children with NH. Misclassifications in children with CI were mostly consistent with progressive vestibular loss, whereas misclassifications in children with NH were mostly consistent with improved vestibular function.

conclusionsStability and misclassification rates varied between tests and groups. Overall, rotary chair and vHIT outcomes were stable in both groups; however, VEMPs differentially changed between groups, improving in children with NH and declining in children with CI. Furthermore, despite relative stability, some children with CI evidenced progressive vestibular loss on all measures suggesting that vestibular testing should be completed serially due to the possibility of progression.
