[Empowering patients through app-based cochlear implant self-adjustment].
Review in HNO, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Treatment of patients with severe hearing loss or deafness using cochlear implants (CI) is nowadays clinical routine. In the Hannover Medical School alone, more than 500 patients are treated with CI annually, meaning that the pool of patients with CI increases significantly each year. Worldwide, there are over 1 million patients with a CI system; in Germany the figure is estimated at over 60,000. With such a huge number of CI patients, centralized annual routine follow-up of all patients in the implant centers is obviously not possible in the long term. Many patients would also like to reduce travel and time expenditures without missing out on the competencies of large hospitals. Simultaneously, the financial pressure exerted by health insurance providers is increasing, resulting in the requirement to provide treatment of the same or even heightened quality more efficiently. Telemedicine in the form of app-based aftercare can help to realize these goals and will play an increasingly important role in the future.
