Behavioral and electrophysiological findings of central auditory processing in children and adolescents undergoing musical training.
Synthesis in CoDAS, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purposeThis study analyzes the outcomes of behavioral and electrophysiological assessments of central auditory processing in children and adolescents undergoing musical training through clinical protocols or structured educational methods. RESEARCH STRATEGIES: A systematic search was conducted in three electronic databases (PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus) between April and June 2024. Two researchers independently applied the following search terms combined with the Boolean operator "AND": "musical training," "child," and "adolescent." SELECTION CRITERIA: The PICOS framework guided the selection process, focusing on population (children and adolescents), intervention (musical training), comparison (with non-trained groups), outcome (central auditory processing effects), and study design (cohort, case-control, and randomized clinical trials). DATA ANALYSIS: Data were extracted and tabulated by the researchers and analyzed descriptively. Methodological quality was assessed using the NHLBI Quality Assessment Tool.
resultsAmong 800 initial publications, five duplicates were removed. Of the remaining 795 studies, 783 did not meet the inclusion criteria. A full-text review of 12 studies led to the exclusion of one due to unavailability and four due to quality issues. Ultimately, seven articles were included.
conclusionThe results highlight improvements in sound discrimination, speech-in-noise processing, environmental sound change detection, and selective attention. These findings underscore the necessity of avoiding overly brief training programs.
