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

Objective: To analyze the association between sleep quality and chronic tinnitus. Materials and Methods: The present is a prospective observational cross-sectional study in which convenience sampling ( Results: There was a predominance of women and middle-aged adults with bilateral tinnitus and hearing loss. The scores on the Tinnitus Handicap Inventory revealed that the tinnitus had a moderate to catastrophic impact on quality of life. Most participants classified themselves as having severe sleep difficulties on the Mini Sleep Questionnaire. Furthermore, patients with higher scores on the Tinnitus Handicap Inventory tended to show poor quality sleep patterns on the Mini Sleep Questionnaire. Regarding the association between sex and the scores on the Tinnitus Handicap Inventory, more men were severely handicapped, whereas more women were catastrophically handicapped. There was also a significant association between age group and hearing loss. Conclusion: The data analysis revealed a significant association between sleep quality and tinnitus in the sample.
