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

Cochleovestibular impairment is a debilitating sequela of oncological intervention, resulting from multifaceted organic damage to the inner ear. Clinically manifesting as sensorineural hearing loss and vestibular dysfunction, ototoxicity significantly compromises cognitive health and long-term quality of life. Despite its prevalence, early detection and prophylactic intervention remain clinically suboptimal. This review provides a comprehensive analysis of the molecular pathogenesis and risk factors-including age, specific genetic polymorphisms, and cumulative dosage-associated with various cancer modalities such as platinum-based chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and emerging immunotherapies. We specifically evaluate the cellular mechanisms of cisplatin-induced irreversible damage to the stria vascularis and hair cells. Furthermore, this article critiques current clinical monitoring protocols, advocating for the integration of baseline audiological screening and high-frequency auditory assessments as mandatory standards of care. Finally, we synthesize the current therapeutic landscape, ranging from established otoprotective agents and cochlear implants to novel candidate drugs in the preclinical pipeline. By bridging mechanistic research with translational evidence, this review emphasizes a precision-medicine approach to balance therapeutic efficacy with the preservation of auditory integrity for cancer survivors.
