Measures of Speech Understanding in Noise for Young Children with a Cochlear Implant in Mainstream and Special Education.
Article in Trends in hearing. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
The use of two types of speech-in-noise (SPIN) assessment, namely digits-in-noise self-tests and open-set, monosyllabic word tests, to assess the SPIN understanding performance of children with cochlear implants (CI) in mainstream and special education, was investigated. The tests' feasibility and reliability and the influence of specific cognitive abilities on their results were studied. The results of 30 children with CIs in mainstream and special education were compared to those of 60 normal-hearing children in elementary school. Results indicate that the digit triplet test (DTT) was feasible for all children tested in this study, as seen by the familiarity of all the digits, the high stability of the test results (<3 dB SNR), and a small measurement error (≤2 dB SNR). Remembering full triplets did not form a problem and results did not show systematic attention loss. For children with CIs, the performance on the DTT was strongly related to the performance on the open-set monosyllabic word-in-noise task. However, small but significant differences were observed in the performance of children with CIs in mainstream and special education on the monosyllabic word test. Both tests showed little influence of cognitive abilities, making them both useful in situations where the bottom-up auditory aspect of SPIN performance needs to be investigated or in situations where sentence-in-noise tests are too challenging.
