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

backgroundThe influence of hearing impairment on everyday hearing can be estimated by speech audiometry. There is a great deal of variability in the dependence of word recognition scores on pure-tone hearing loss. MATERIALS AND

methodsA large clinical database of 28,261 records with complete tone and speech audiometry data was analyzed. The maximum monosyllabic word recognition score was evaluated as a function of hearing loss. Its distribution was analyzed in detail.

resultsIn a rank analysis, the distribution of percentiles was determined as a function of pure-tone hearing loss up to 80 dB

conclusionThe percentiles of the distribution of maximum word recognition scores for a given pure-tone hearing loss derived here can be used as reference values for a disproportionately high loss of speech recognition.
