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

Objective: To systematically evaluate the association between hypertension and hearing loss. Methods: A standardized search for studies on hypertension and hearing loss in PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science was performed using subject terms, free terms, and keyword combinations for the period of library construction to March 2024. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4 and STATA 18.0. Results: A total of 12 studies were included, assessing 594,676 participants. The combined OR using the random effects model was 1.849 (95% CI: 1.549, 2.208). Heterogeneity in this analysis was high ( Conclusion: Hypertension may be one of the risk factors for hearing loss. Identification of hypertension can help in early assessment and management of hearing loss risk. Systematic review registration: https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/, identifier CRD42023460001.
