Validating an Evoked Potential Platform for Electrocochleography During Cochlear Implantation.
Article in The Laryngoscope, 2025. 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
objectiveTo validate electrocochleography (ECochG) between an auditory evoked potential (AEP) machine and an established cochlear implant (CI) manufacturer ECochG system.
methodsIntraoperative validation study at a tertiary referral center. Patients included adults and children undergoing cochlear implantation. Intraoperative ECochG was measured with both the Intelligent Hearing Systems (IHS) Duet AEP machine and Cochlear Corporation (CC) ECochG platform. Recording electrodes captured extracochlear measurements through a standard facial recess. Tone-bursts were presented from 250 Hz to 2 kHz (~110 dB SPL). A fast Fourier transform (FFT) of ECochG waveforms at key frequencies was summed into a total response (ECochG-TR). Pearson's correlation was utilized to evaluate the relationship between IHS-ECochG-TR and CC-ECochG-TR after confirming normality.
resultsThirty patients were enrolled with an average age of 67 years (SD 18.8). In the ear that was implanted, mean preoperative pure-tone average (PTA; 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 kHz) was 87.4 dB HL (SD 19.3) and mean preoperative word-recognition scores (WRS) was 17.0% correct (SD 19.1). There was strong correlation (r = 0.905, 95% confidence interval: 0.809 to 0.954) between IHS-ECochG-TR (median 2.30 μV, range 0.1-148.26) and CC-ECochG-TR (median 3.00 μV, range 0.1-239.63). Four patients underwent transtympanic ECochG with the IHS system for feasibility evaluation and achieved similar responses.
conclusionExtracochlear ECochG has been predictive of CI speech perception performance. The IHS duet system is a valid measure of extracochlear ECochG for the CI population. Future work will utilize this system for measuring transtympanic ECochG to improve preoperative estimation of CI performance. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 3 Laryngoscope, 135:308-315, 2025.
