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

In individuals with hearing loss, protection of residual hearing is essential following cochlear implantation to facilitate acoustic and electric hearing. Hearing preservation requires slow insertion, atraumatic electrode and delivery of the optimal quantity of a pharmacological agent. Several studies have reported variable hearing outcomes with osmotic pump-mediated steroid delivery. New drugs, such as sialyllactose (SL) which have anti-inflammatory effect in many body parts, can prevent tissue overgrowth. In the present study, the positive effects of the pharmacological agent SL against insults were evaluated in vitro using HEI-OC1 cells. An animal model to simulate the damage due to electrode insertion during cochlear implantation was used. SL was delivered using osmotic pumps to prevent loss of the residual hearing in this animal model. Hearing deterioration, tissue fibrosis and ossification were confirmed in this animal model. Increased gene expressions of inflammatory cytokines were identified in the cochleae following dummy electrode insertion. Following the administration of SL, insertion led to a decrease in hearing threshold shifts, tissue reactions, and inflammatory markers. These results emphasize the possible role of SL in hearing preservation and improve our understanding of the mechanism underlying hearing loss after cochlear implantation.
