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
Māori adults are over-represented in self-reported hearing loss statistics in Aotearoa, yet they are currently underserved in hearing healthcare services that were designed using one-size-fits-all Eurocentric ideologies and models of health and disability. Unassisted hearing loss has been linked to increased rates of depression, social isolation, communication issues, early retirement, and cognitive decline, as well as a decreased ability to engage with cultural practices. An area that requires further research is the exploration of Māori adults' perspectives and experiences of hearing healthcare. This article uses a Kaupapa Māori lens to bring forward Māori narratives and expands on previous research of a te reo Māori hearing screening test. The article shares findings from interviews with Māori adults, exploring both their perspectives and lived experiences of ear and hearing healthcare and te reo hearing assessments. It highlights the barriers that exist for Māori when accessing hearing healthcare in Te Waipounamu (The South Island of Aotearoa) and the desire to see transformative change in the hearing healthcare landscape.
