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

This retrospective observational analysis examined the relationship between blood routine parameters and audiometric subtypes of sudden sensorineural hearing loss and prognosis. The 379 participants were then divided into groups according to audiometric configuration, time of onset of symptoms, and prognosis at 4 weeks after therapy. Hemoglobin, neutrophilia, lymphopenia, monocytosis, thrombocytosis, and hypoalbuminemia were positively associated with prognosis, while lymphocytosis, platelet count, age, gender, ASA physical status, obesity, chronic illnesses, chronic kidney disease, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and smoking were inversely associated. The independent predictive biomarker was identified as neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio after adjusting for the other indices, such as C-reactive protein and erythrocyte sedimentation rate. Finally, we examined the relationships between the recovery prognosis and symptom onset time, corticosteroid use, and hearing loss. The results have highlighted that a combined assessment with hematological and inflammatory markers will provide better prognosis prediction and enhance the SSNHL treatment approaches.
