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

Accurate 3D models of the cochlea are useful tools for research in the relationship between the electrode array and nerve fibres. The internal geometry of the cochlear canal plays an important role in understanding and quantifying that relationship. Predicting the location and shapes of the geometry is done by measuring histologic sections and fitting equations that can be used to predict parameters that fully define the geometry. A parameter sensitivity analysis is employed to prove that the size and location of the spiral lamina are the characteristics that most influence current distribution along target nerve fibres. The proposed landmark prediction method more accurately predicts the location of the points defining the spiral lamina in the apical region of the cochlea than methods used in previous modelling attempts. Thus, this technique can be used to generate 2D geometries that can be expanded to 3D models when high-resolution imaging is not available.
