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

purposeType 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) may induce micro-vascular and macro-vascular changes that can lead to neuropathic changes which may affect the auditory pathway resulting in hearing loss. The study aims to evaluate the outcome of ipsilateral and contralateral acoustic reflex (AR) parameters and reflex decay tests (RDT) in patients with T2DM, and the relationship between average AR parameters, and duration and control of T2DM.

methodsAn analytical cross-sectional study was conducted in a tertiary care setup in 126 subjects which included 42 subjects with T2DM between 30 and 60 years of age, age-matched with 84 non-diabetic subjects. The subjects were evaluated for pure tone average (PTA), speech identification score (SIS), AR parameters [acoustic reflex threshold (ART), acoustic reflex amplitude (ARA), acoustic reflex latency (ARL)] and RDT.

resultsThe subjects with T2DM showed increased PTA in both ears when compared to the subjects with no disease. No significant difference was found in the SIS between both groups. There was no significant difference in the ART and ARL between the two groups. There was a significant difference in the ipsilateral and contralateral ARA at 500 Hz, 1000 Hz and broadband noise (BBN) when compared between the diabetic and non-diabetic groups. No significant difference was found between average AR parameters and duration and control of T2DM.

conclusionT2DM increases hearing thresholds and reduces ipsilateral and contralateral AR at lower frequencies and BBN. Duration and control of T2DM do not affect the AR parameters.
