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

We investigated 34 deaf and hard-of-hearing children with hearing devices aged 8-12 years and 30 typical hearing peers. We used the capability approach to assess well-being in both groups through interviews. Capability is "the real freedom people have to do and to be what they have reason to value." Speech perception, phonology, and receptive vocabulary data of the deaf and hard-of-hearing children, that were used retrospectively, showed a large variability. The analysis of the relation between clinical quantitative outcome measures and qualitative capability interview outcomes suggests that at this age, differences in clinical performance do not appear to translate into considerable differences in capability, including capability did offer insight into the factors that appeared to ensure this equivalence of capability. We argue that capability outcomes should be used to determine the focus of (auditory) rehabilitation and support, in line with the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.
