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

backgroundBinaural hearing enables better speech comprehension in noisy environments and is necessary for acoustic spatial orientation. This study investigates speech discrimination in noise with separated signal sources and measures sound localization. The aim was to study characteristics and reproducibility of two selected measurement techniques which seem to be suitable for description of the aforementioned aspects of binaural hearing. MATERIALS AND

methodsSpeech reception thresholds (SRT) in noise and test-retest reliability were collected from 55 normal-hearing adults for a spatial setup of loudspeakers with angles of ± 45° and ± 90° using the Oldenburg sentence test. The investigations of sound localization were conducted in a semicircle and fullcircle setup (7 and 12 equidistant loudspeakers).

conclusionWhen using the Oldenburg sentence test in noise with spatially separated signals, it is mandatory to perform a training session of 120 sentences in order to minimize the procedural learning effect. Ear-specific SRT values for speech discrimination in noise with separated signal sources are required, which is probably due to the right-ear advantage. A training is recommended for sound localization in the fullcircle setup.
