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

Tinnitus is a symptom of various disorders that affects the quality of life of millions people. Given the significance of the access to an objective and non-invasive method for tinnitus detection, in this study the auditory brainstem response (ABR) electrophysiological test was used to diagnose salicylate-induced tinnitus, in parallel with common behavioral tests. Wistar rats were divided into saline (n = 7), and salicylate (n = 7) groups for behavioral tests, and salicylate group (n = 5) for the ABR test. The rats were evaluated by pre-pulse inhibition (PPI), gap pre-pulse inhibition of the acoustic startle (GPIAS), and ABR tests, at baseline, 14 and 62 h after salicylate (350 mg/kg) or vehicle injection. The mean percentage of GPIAS test was significantly reduced following salicylate administration, which confirms the induction of tinnitus. The ABR test results showed an increase in the hearing threshold at click and 8, 12, and 16 kHz tones. Moreover, a decline was observed in the latency ratio of II-I waves in all tone burst frequencies with the highest variation in 12 and 16 kHz as well as a decrement in the latency ratio of III-I and IV-I only in 12 and 16 kHz. ABR test is able to evaluate the salicylate induced tinnitus pitch and confirm the results of behavioral tinnitus tests. GPIAS reflexive response is dependent on brainstem circuits and the auditory cortex while, ABR test can demonstrate the function of the auditory brainstem in more details, and therefore, a combination of these two tests can offer a more accurate tinnitus evaluation.
