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

purposeThis retrospective cohort study aimed to investigate the effect of minimally invasive cochlear implantation (CI) on the vestibular function (VF) and residual hearing (RH) as well as their relationship in pediatric recipients before and after surgery.

methodsTwenty-four pediatric patients with preoperative low frequency residual hearing (LFRH) (250 or 500 Hz ≤ 80 dB HL) who underwent minimally invasive CI were enrolled. Pure-tone thresholds, the cervical/ocular vestibular-evoked myogenic potential (cVEMP/oVEMP), and video head impulse test (vHIT) were all evaluated in the 24 pediatric patients with preoperative normal VF before and at 1 and 12 months after surgery. The relationship between changes in hearing and VF was analyzed preoperatively and at 1 and 12 months postoperatively.

resultsThere were no significant differences on VF preservation and hearing preservation (HP) at both 1 and 12 months post-CI (p > 0.05). At 1 month post-CI, the correlations of the variations in vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) gains of horizontal semicircular canal (HSC) and posterior semicircular canal (PSC) and the shift in 250 Hz threshold were negatively correlated (r = - 0.41, p = 0.04 and r = - 0.43, p = 0.04, respectively). At 12 months post-CI, the shift in 250 Hz threshold negatively correlated to the variations in VOR gain of superior semicircular canal (SSC) (r = - 0.43, p = 0.04); the HP positively correlated to the variation in oVEMP-amplitude ratio (AR) (r = 0.41, p = 0.04).

conclusionOur study confirmed that there were partial correlations between VF preservation and HP both in the short- and long-terms after atraumatic CI surgery, especially with the 250 Hz threshold. Regarding the variation of PSC function, the correlation with hearing status was variable with time after atraumatic CI surgery. Minimally invasive techniques for HP are successful and effective for the preservation of VF in pediatric patients both in the short- and long-terms.
