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

Cochlear Implantation (CI) is a well-accepted treatment for severe-to-profound sensorineural hearing loss, refractory to conventional hearing amplification. Pre-operative Computed Tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) play pivotal roles in patient selection to rule out findings that preclude surgery or identify conditions that may impact the surgical procedure. A prospective study was carried out in a tertiary care center over three years, from January 2020 to January 2023. One hundred and ninety (380 ears) patients' High-Resolution Computed Tomography (HRCT) studies of the temporal bone and MRI scans of the auditory pathways were analyzed. A reporting format was followed which was devised by a team of senior implant surgeons and senior neuro-radiologists. Our study aims to provide a comprehensive radiologic protocol for CI candidacy including normative data for the essential morphometrics in the Indian setting.
