Late Onset Hearing Loss in Very Low Birth Weight Infants.
Article in Research square, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Objective: To determine the incidence of late onset hearing loss and associated risk factors in very low birth weight (VLBW) infants. Study Design: Retrospective study (2003-2015) of post-discharge hearing outcomes and risk factors in the VLBW infant population, before and after the institution of a standardized follow-up program. Results: Late onset hearing loss increased from 2.9 per 100 VLBW infants to 7.8 per 100 after instituting a monitoring protocol. The follow-up compliance rate nearly doubled. Both infants with late-onset sensorineural hearing loss and those with a conductive component were identified. The rate of conductive loss detection increased seven-fold. Conclusion: The institution of a standardized hearing follow-up program significantly increased the detection of late onset hearing loss in VLBW infants. A significant proportion of those with late onset hearing loss had a conductive component. Without identification and treatment, even conductive losses may negatively impact speech and language development.
