A Rare Case of Unilateral Auditory Neuropathy Induced by Proton Therapy.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 (HL) is one of the most common complications of the treatment in head and neck oncology. Most cases of HL are due to the ototoxicity of platinum-based chemotherapy (PBC) - resulting usually in a symmetric bilateral sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) - or radiotherapy. Radiation-induced SNHL is progressive, permanent, and dose-dependent. Total dose and follow-up time are important factors affecting incidence rates. However, the hearing consequences of proton radiation therapy (PRT), a radiation-type therapy especially used in pediatric malignancies of the central nervous system (CNS), remains unclear and poorly documented. We report here a case of a four-year-old patient with unilateral auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder (ANSD) related to PRT. This case highlights the need for appropriate auditory monitoring in patients undergoing PRT for CNS or head and neck malignancies.
