Serial Monitoring of the Audiogram in Hearing Conservation using Gaussian Processes.
Article in Frontiers in audiology and otology, 2024. 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
Most hearing conservation programs repeatedly monitor a subject's pure tone thresholds before, during, and after exposure to audiopathic agents. Changes to the audiogram that meet significant shift criteria such as ASHA, CTCAE, and so forth are considered evidence of audiopathic injury. Despite a wide variety of definitions for significant change, all current serial monitoring methods are biased due to regression to the mean and are prone to inconclusive results. These problems diminish the diagnostic accuracy and utility of serial monitoring. Here we propose adopting Gaussian processes to address these issues in a manner that maximizes time efficiency and can be administered using portable equipment at the point of care.
