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

purposeThe current study was taken up to estimate the prevalence of Single Sided Deafness (SSD) in a tertiary healthcare hospital in Mumbai. Also to determine the acceptance of Contralateral routing of offside signal (CROS) devices by individuals with SSD.

methodA retrospective study design was followed to collect data from September 2020 to September 2022. The data were collected by reviewing the files of the cases diagnosed with Single-Sided Deafness in a tertiary health care hospital in Mumbai.

resultThe prevalence of SSD was found to be 24% for the given period. It was observed that 50 out of 4456 took a free trial and 2 bought the device.

conclusionThe poor acceptance and purchase of CROS are attributed to the cost, and missed benefits of true binaural hearing in localization and hearing in noise. These benefits can be achieved by using CI, however, the cost and fear of surgery refrained the participants. Also, participants were observed to learn great use of communication repair strategies. Therefore, it is required to counsel individuals with SSD for CI and provide knowledge about care for the better with regular audiological follow-up.
