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

Purpose: This study aims to quantify how frequently infants not passing the final newborn hearing screen and diagnosed by an audiologist with typical hearing do not receive threshold testing recommended as part of a complete audiological evaluation. Method: A total of 10,821 infants born in 2022 from 22 jurisdictions did not pass the final hearing screen and received a typical hearing diagnosis, for whom we reviewed testing procedures. Infants were categorized by whether threshold testing was completed. Poisson regression was used to generate prevalence ratios assessing receipt of threshold testing at audiological evaluation among different groups. Results: Of included infants, 17.4% ( Conclusions: Almost one in six infants not passing newborn hearing screening and diagnosed with typical hearing did not receive audiologic threshold testing. Implementing systems-level approaches to facilitate standardized audiology care following best practice recommendations may help ensure infants with minimal to mild hearing thresholds receive timely intervention services to prevent developmental delays.
