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

ObjectiveTo evaluate outcomes of cochlear implantation (CI) in patients with unilateral sensorineural hearing loss (USNHL) and explore effects and stimulation current in USNHL patients with bony cochlear nerve canal (BCNC) stenosis versus normal cochlear nerve canals.MethodsA prospective study was conducted on 23 USNHL patients who underwent CI (MED-EL) from May 2019 to March 2023. Preoperative CT and MRI scans were performed to measure BCNC width. Subjects were divided into BCNC stenosis (BCNC-S) and BCNC normal (BCNC-N) groups. Hearing thresholds, speech recognition scores (SRS), sound localization ability, and auditory/musical abilities were assessed before and two years after CI. Differences were determined using Stata statistical software, with significance defined as
