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

Auditory hallucinations are sounds that patients perceive as coming from outside of their body. Though the mechanism causing auditory hallucinations is not entirely understood, there is a significant amount of evidence suggesting that auditory hallucinations leave lasting impacts on the brain in the same regions that are involved in auditory processing. Sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) is a poorly understood condition in which patients lose their hearing typically in the fifth decade of life. Here we present a case of a 42-year-old female with a history of schizophrenia with auditory hallucinations who experienced SSNHL at age 40. As the patient had no known risk factors for SSNHL, we propose that this patient's SSNHL is linked to her history of auditory hallucinations. Through the presentation of this case, we hope to explore the pathogenesis of auditory hallucinations and investigate a potentially bidirectional association between auditory hallucinations and SSNHL. This study calls for further investigation into the impacts of auditory hallucinations on the brain, possible etiologies of SSNHL, and the possibility that auditory hallucinations serve as a risk factor for SSNHL.
