Sensorineural deafness in a child with Prader-Willi Syndrome-A rare case report.
Article in Journal of family medicine and primary care, 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
Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a genetic condition, predominantly of sporadic origin, associated with chromosomal abnormalities involving the long arm of chromosome 15, specifically the q11-13 region. Of note, the STRC gene, located on chromosome 15q15.3, is implicated in congenital sensorineural hearing loss, primarily affecting the inner hair cells of the cochlea, and typically results in mild to moderate hearing impairment. In our case, the patient presented with unilateral profound hearing loss, predominantly involving the neural component-a unique finding not previously documented in the literature. Whether hearing impairments are an intrinsic feature of PWS or merely a coincidental association remains unclear. While routine monitoring in PWS typically focuses on growth, vision, sleep, developmental milestones, and endocrine function, auditory screening in asymptomatic children is often overlooked. This case underscores the need for further investigation into hearing issues in individuals with PWS.
