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

Congenital hearing loss is hearing loss present in a child at birth or soon after birth. It is a debilitating condition with the potential for lifelong disability. It is thought to be multifactorial in aetiology with both genetic (autosomal and X-linked) and acquired causes (such as maternal infections, drug intake, trauma). Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) is a relatively common condition found in pregnant females but is a rather understudied risk factor in terms of congenital hearing loss. GDM is easily treatable which makes the hearing loss due to it easily preventable. (1) Determine correlation between Gestational Diabetes Mellitus and congenital hearing loss in neonates. (2) Calculate the prevalence of Gestational Diabetes Mellitus related congenital hearing loss. A two-step screening process was used for hearing evaluation of neonates with normal mothers (non-exposed) and neonates with mothers suffering from GDM (exposed) through Otoacoustic emission (OAE) and Brainstem Evoked Response Audiometry (BERA). (1) The difference of neonates diagnosed with hearing impairment in exposed and non-exposed group was statistically significant with a
