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
Purpose: One of the most obvious functional effects of aging on the cognitive and processing processes of spatial hearing is the localization problem and the disorder of speech perception in noise. The purpose of the present study is to investigate the performance of dynamic spatial auditory processing in the elderly. Methods: This descriptive and analytical study was conducted on 60 young participants aged from18 to 25 years old and 60 elderly participants aged from 60 to 75 old years, using speech, spatial, and qualities of hearing scale (SSQ) questionnaire, binaural masking level difference (BMLD) and dynamic quick speech in noise (DS-QSIN) tests. Results: Comparing the average scores of the tests and the questionnaire using the independent t test showed a significant difference between the two groups ( Conclusions: Aging is accompanied by different structural and functional changes in the auditory central nervous system, which leads to a decrease in speech perception in challenging listening environments, as well as a decrease in sound localization abilities, due to the reduction of temporal and spectral information. This problem affects the determination of the source of sound and the spatial cognition of the elderly and leads to a disturbance in the awareness of the auditory environment. Therefore, auditory rehabilitation programs can cause the improvement of spatial auditory processing performance and improve speech perception in noise in the elderly.
