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.

Abstract
The study aimed to evaluate auditory spatial perception in individuals with and without recreational noise exposure using Virtual Acoustic Space Identification. A standard group comparison design using purposive sampling was conducted on 60 normal-hearing participants aged 18-30. They were divided into experimental and control groups based on their scores on the recreational hearing habits questionnaire (CHAR). The experimental group was exposed to recreational noise for at least 4 h per day, while the control group had no noise exposure. The procedure involved the administration of Virtual Acoustic Space Identification (VASI) at 65 dB SPL. Spatial perception was measured at eight spatial percepts within the head. Based on the confusion matrix, accuracy scores, reaction time at each virtual location, and the overall VASI score were calculated. The results indicate a significant difference in Front errors and Front-as-back errors in the two groups; people with recreational noise exposure had more errors in these spatial percepts. This indicates the differential impact of recreational noise on auditory spatial perception. The differences observed in the test can be attributed to the complexity of the auditory spatial perception task, the stimulus and the better sensitivity of the VASI in detecting spatial deficits. Recreational noise exposure affects spatial auditory perception, emphasizing the importance of mitigating recreational noise-related risks for auditory spatial skills.
