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.
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
Idiopathic sudden-sensorineural hearing loss (ISSHL) is an emergent otological condition needing prompt treatment for better recovery. In our study we aimed to determine the efficacy of intra-tympanic dexamethasone therapy after inserting a grommet in postero-inferior quadrant of the tympanic membrane for dexamethasone instillation. This is a prospective cohort study of 31 patients of ISSHL, in whom grommet was inserted and dexamethasone drops were instilled for 5 days. Several factors such as time of initiation of therapy, age of patient was considered, and inferences were drawn. Auditory outcomes were divided into low, mid and high frequency and the results were tabulated. Paired
