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

Noise exposure has been reported to exert numerous detrimental effects on the human population, although most research has centred around hearing damage. Vestibular and balance loss have been demonstrated among industrial workers, although reports on this are still scarce. Vestibular loss increases the risk of falls, especially among industrial workers who are at constant risk. Nonetheless, the ideal investigation tool to investigate vestibular function remains unknown. We aim to review the available literature to elucidate the effect of noise exposure on semicircular canals using a video head impulse test (vHIT). A literature search identified only three studies involving 137 patients (mean age: 44.4). Semicircular canal deficit was found in 50.4% of the included participants, with lateral canal predominantly affected (71%). We highlight the importance of assessing the effect of noise exposure on vestibular function, especially among those prone to occupation-related vestibular loss.
