Analysis of Spatial, Binaural, and Better-Ear Benefits for Different Degrees of Hearing Loss Using a Binaural Speech Intelligibility Model.
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
This study analyzed speech recognition thresholds (SRTs) in noise of 738 listeners with different degrees of hearing loss, including normal hearing. Speech was presented from the front, while noise was presented from either the front or from +90° or -90° azimuth, corresponding to the ear with the worse hearing threshold. The latter condition was tested binaurally and monaurally (using the only better ear (BE)). Listeners showed larger variance in SRTs than in spatial, binaural, and BE benefits, regardless of their hearing loss. A model consisting of a blind equalization-cancellation (EC) front-end and the non-blind speech intelligibility index (SII, ANSI S3.5-1997) was used to predict the measured SRTs. This model used a pure-tone audiogram to simulate hearing loss. We evaluated whether an individual suprathreshold component improves the model's prediction accuracy. This component was implemented in two ways: as an individual reference SII value (from the SRT of the S
