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

The outcome of the cochlear implant is dependent highly on the knowledge, belief and practice of cochlear implant in otolaryngologists who are among the important team members. The study explored the knowledge, beliefs, and practices towards cochlear implantations among otorhinolaryngologists in India. An online cross-sectional survey study was carried out using convenient sampling among otorhinolaryngologists in India. Phase-I involved developing and validating of a questionnaire to study the knowledge, beliefs, and practices towards cochlear implants among otorhinolaryngologists in India while phase II involved administration of the questionnaire and analysis. Data collection was conducted using Google Forms. A total of 106 otorhinolaryngologists participated across 24-65 years of age and with experience ranging from 1 to 42 years. The participating otorhinolaryngologists reported having good knowledge about the candidacy for a cochlear implant but having limited knowledge of the recent developments and governmental schemes. The otorhinolaryngologists displayed positive beliefs regarding cochlear implantation. Most recommended a battery of tests to determine the candidacy and gave a lot of importance to rehabilitation (96.2%) and surgery for implantation (83%). The respondents also practiced giving importance to a team approach involving multiple team members. High costs and financial burden emerged to be the major challenges for cochlear implantation in India
