Philippine Clinical Practice Guidelines for Periodic Health Examination: Screening for Hearing Disorders.
Article in Acta medica Philippina, 2026. 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
Objective: These Philippine clinical practice guidelines (CPG) were developed to guide healthcare professionals on screening for hearing disorders among apparently healthy children and adult Filipinos. Methods: Following the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) approach to CPG development recommended in the Department of Health Manual, the Task Force Steering Committee developed four key questions. The evidence review experts reviewed existing CPGs and appraised and summarized evidence. The multisectoral consensus panel reviewed the evidence summaries and developed recommendations during the Results: This CPG provides 10 recommendations based on four prioritized questions in the screening for hearing and vestibular disorders among apparently healthy children (from prenatal to school age) and adults. Conclusion: The consensus panel recommended the screening for hearing and vestibular disorders in certain population groups, based on the available evidence, the burden of disease, the cost of the confirmatory testing, and its applicability to the population.
