Bimodal Cochlear Implants: Measurement of the Localization Performance as a Function of Device Latency Difference.
Article in Trends in hearing. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Bimodal cochlear implant users show poor localization performance. One reason for this is a difference in the processing latency between the hearing aid and the cochlear implant side. It has been shown that reducing this latency difference acutely improves the localization performance of bimodal cochlear implant users. However, due to the frequency dependency of both the device latencies and the acoustic hearing ear, current frequency-independent latency adjustments cannot fully compensate for the differences, leaving open which latency adjustment is best. We therefore measured the localization performance of 11 bimodal cochlear implant users for multiple cochlear implant latencies. We confirmed previous studies that adjusting the interaural latency improves localization in most of our subjects. However, the latency that leads to the best localization performance for most subjects was not necessarily at the latency estimated to compensate for the interaural difference at intermediate frequencies (1 kHz). Nine of 11 subjects localized best with a cochlear implant latency that was slightly shorter than the estimated latency compensation.
