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

Objective: To evaluate the clinical characteristics of simultaneous bilateral sudden sensorineural hearing loss (Si-BSSNHL) as well as its prognostic factors. Methods: Patients with Si-BSSNHL who were admitted to the Department of Otology Medicine between December 2018 and December 2021 were enrolled in the case group. Propensity score matching (PSM) for sex and age was used to select the control group, which included people who had unilateral sudden sensorineural hearing loss (USSNHL) during the same time period. Hearing recovery, audiological examinations, vestibular function assessments, laboratory tests, and demographic and clinical manifestations were analyzed for intergroup comparisons. Binary logistic regressions were used for both univariate and multivariate analyses of Si-BSSNHL prognostic factors. Results: Before PSM, the Si-BSSNHL and USSNHL groups differed significantly ( Conclusion: Patients with Si-BSSNHL had mild deafness, elevated total and indirect bilirubin and homocysteine levels, and poorer prognosis than those with USSNHL. Audiogram curve type was linked to the therapeutic effect of Si-BSSNHL, and the sloping type was an independent risk factor for a poor prognosis in the right ear of Si-SSNHL.
