Reevaluation of sodium thiosulfate otoprotection using the consensus International Society of Paediatric Oncology Ototoxicity Scale: A report from the Children's Oncology Group study ACCL0431.
Article in Pediatric blood & cancer, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
In two randomized trials (Children's Oncology Group ACCL0431 and International Childhood Liver Tumour Strategy Group SIOPEL-6), sodium thiosulfate (STS) demonstrated efficacy in preventing cisplatin-induced hearing loss (CIHL). However, the measures used in those trials have been superseded by the consensus International Society of Paediatric Oncology (SIOP) Ototoxicity Scale. To provide benchmark data for STS efficacy when using this contemporary scale, we reanalyzed ACCL0431 hearing outcomes with the SIOP scale and using multiple timepoints. Compared to the control arm, STS significantly reduced CIHL when assessed by the SIOP scale across these different approaches. These results provide critical data to inform treatment discussions and support future potential trial designs comparing otoprotectants.
