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

purposeChildren with temporal processing deficits struggle to detect and discriminate syllables, phonemes, and stress patterns in speech. To overcome these deficits, computer-based auditory training programs have been widely used as one of the rehabilitation alternatives in recent years. The present study aimed to examine the usefulness of one such computer-based temporal processing training (CBTPT) module on children with temporal processing deficits.

methodSixteen children (8-15 years) with temporal processing deficits were enrolled in the study, further divided into active (CBTPT) and placebo (placebo training) groups. Further, 8 typically developing children (no training) were enrolled as a comparison group. The auditory outcome measures included Duration Pattern Test (DPT), Gap Detection Test (GDT), Dichotic CV (DCV), and Speech-in-Noise-Indian English (SPIN-IE) assessed before and after training for all three groups.

resultsWilcoxon-sign rank test showed a statically significant difference between pre and post-test scores of DPT, GDT, and SPIN (p < 0.001) except DCV among the active group. However, no significant differences were noted in the pre and post-test scores among the placebo and TD groups. Mann Whitney U test showed a significant difference in DPT and SPIN post-training scores between active and placebo groups; active and TD group; placebo and TD group.

conclusionFrom the above finding, it is inferred that the CBTPT module is useful among children having temporal processing deficits.
