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

Unilateral Sensorineural Hearing Loss (USNHL) can present with varying symptoms apart from hearing loss, such as dizziness and tinnitus. Impaired sound localization, inability to identify speech in noise and decreased temporal summation can significantly impair the daily activities of an individual. This along with dizziness and tinnitus affects the physical, mental and social health as well. The purpose of this study is to assess and correlate the spectrum of handicap faced by USNHL patients. Validated questionnaires were used to evaluate handicap in 42 USNHL patients due to hearing loss (Hearing Handicap Inventory for Adults-HHIA), dizziness (Dizziness Handicap Inventory-DHI) and tinnitus (Tinnitus Handicap Inventory-THI). These handicaps were then correlated with each other using Spearman's correlation coefficient. Statistically significant strong positive correlation of HHIA was seen with DHI (rho = 0.60,
