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

Introduction: Communication between individuals is based on communication in noisy environments. However, audiological tests used for the evaluation of hearing levels or determination of hearing loss are usually applied in a quiet environment. This study aims to evaluate whether depression has an effect on speech-in-noise perception and supra-threshold auditory processing abilities, even in individuals without advanced age or hearing loss. Methods: The study group comprised 29 individuals who did not have hearing loss but were diagnosed with depression. The control group consisted of 29 individuals who did not have hearing loss or a depression diagnosis. All participants underwent the Temporal Fine Structure adaptive frequency (TFS-AF) test to assess supra-threshold auditory processing abilities. The results were then compared between the study and control groups. Results: The study revealed significant differences in TFS sensitivity scores between the study and control groups, with test scores in the depression group being significantly lower than those in the control group (p=0.000). Conclusion: Depression can significantly affect auditory performance. Depression, alongside factors like hearing loss and aging, can impact auditory functions like speech intelligibility. Therefore, a more holistic approach that considers emotional status is essential for comprehensively evaluating listening skills and auditory functions, even in individuals without hearing loss.
