Effect of minimum and maximum electrical stimulation levels on sound field thresholds,and speech perception in children using the Advanced Bionics Cochlear Implant.
Review in Journal of otology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: It's crucial to study the effect of changes in thresholds (T) and most comfortable levels (M) on behavioral measurements in young children using cochlear implants. This would help the clinician with the optimization and validation of programming parameters. Objective: The study has attempted to describe the changes in behavioral responses with modification of T and M levels. Methods: Twenty-five participants in the age range 5 to 12 years using HR90K/HiFocus1J or HR90KAdvantage/HiFocus1J with Harmony speech processors participated in the study. A decrease in T levels, a rise in T levels, or a decrease in M levels in the everyday program were used to create experimental programs. Sound field thresholds and speech perception were measured at 50 dBHL for three experimental and everyday programs. Conclusion: The results indicated that only reductions of M levels resulted in significantly (p<0.01) poor aided thresholds and speech perception. On the other hand, variation in T levels did not have significant changes in either sound field thresholds or speech perception. The results highlight that M levels must be correctly established in order to prevent decreased speech perception and audibility.
