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
The prevalence of hearing loss is 0.09-2.3% in low risk neonates, and 0.3-14.1% in the high-risk population. The treatment requires early identification by neonatal hearing screening and early rehabilitation. OAE (oto-acoustic emission) and ABR (Auditory Brain Response) are the two objective tests used to evaluate hearing loss in neonates. OAE tests the biological response of the cochlea to auditory stimuli. ABR tests the auditory pathway. The aim is to estimate hearing loss in high-risk neonates using the Distortion Product Oto- acoustic emission (DP OAE) and to correlate the associated high-risk factors. This was a cross-sectional study conducted between March 2021 to September 2022. Newborns satisfying the inclusion criteria were included in the study. DP- OAE is performed to screen for hearing loss within 48 h of birth. Infants failing the first screening test are then examined for treatable causes and then repeated at 2 weeks. Newborns who fail the second DP-OAE are subjected to ABR for confirmation of hearing loss. A total of 100 high risk neonates underwent hearing screen using DP-OAE. Most common risk factors seen in our study are prematurity (22%), Low birth weight (< 2.5 kg) (20%), Neonatal Hyperbilirubinemia (17%), Maternal risk factors (GDM) (14%). Most neonates with prematurity failed the hearing test with significant p-value of 0.05. DP- OAE test can be successfully implemented as newborn hearing screening method, for early detection of hearing impairment to achieve the high quality standard of screening programs.
