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

Approximately 1 in 10 children with hearing loss is affected by auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder (ANSD). People who have ANSD usually have great difficulty understanding speech or communicating. However, it is possible for these patients to have audiograms that may indicate profound hearing loss up to normal hearing. This disorder is prognosed with positive, intact or present otoacoustic emissions (OAE) and/or cochlear microphonics (CM) as well as abnormal or absent auditory brainstem responses (ABR). Treatment methods include conventional hearing aids as well as cochlear implants. Cochlear implants (CI) usually promise better speech understanding for ANSD patients. We performed a systematic literature review aiming to show what improvements can effectively be achieved with cochlear implants in children with ANSD and compare this with our experience with two cases of ANSD implanted at our clinic. The retrospective review of two young CI patients diagnosed with ANSD during infancy demonstrated improvements over time in speech development communicated by their parents.
