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
Introduction: The skin prick test (SPT) is a standard method for diagnosing allergic diseases, while sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) remains a perplexing condition often of unknown etiology. We present a unique case of SSNHL emerging shortly after an SPT, suggesting a potential link between allergic reactions and inner ear disorders. Case Report: A 27-year-old male presented with unilateral hearing loss following an SPT for allergic rhinitis. Audiometric findings revealed SSNHL in the affected ear. Treatment with corticosteroids led to a full recovery of hearing function. Conclusion: This case highlights the rare occurrence of SSNHL possibly triggered by a type 1 allergic reaction to an SPT. Prompt corticosteroid therapy proved effective in restoring hearing. Further research is needed to understand the relationship between allergies and SSNHL and explore alternative treatment options.
