Age-related changes in auditory perception. Hearing loss in the elderly: aging ear or aging brain?
Review in Aging clinical and experimental research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Hearing loss in the elderly is a very common disease: it is estimated to affect up to a third of the population aged 65 years or more, and 50% of people over 75 years old. There is a growing amount of data concerning the association between hearing loss and cognitive decline. Various possible mechanisms at the basis of this association have been proposed, such as the "common cause hypothesis," the "cascade hypothesis," and the "cognitive load hypothesis."Critically reviewing the data is essential to highlight the features of the relationship between hearing loss and cognitive decline. Most of the hearing tests available should take into account that dementia or even just mild cognitive impairment (MCI) may lead to poor performance during examination. On the other hand, clinicians should also remember that tests used to assess cognitive function require an adequate hearing capacity.In this article we propose to analyze current diagnostic tests, treatment options, auditory processing, and rehabilitation strategies for hearing loss in the elderly in order to facilitate the management of this handicap in this fragile population.
