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

The estimated prevalence of adult onset hearing deafness in India is 7.6% and childhood onset hearing loss is 2%. But there are very few studies which highlight the prevalence of various types of hearing loss. So a retrospective, cross-sectional study in a peripheral tertiary care hospital was designed to analyze the different types of hearing loss among patients with complaints of hearing disabilities attending and assess the more prevalent type of hearing loss according to severity. Out of total study population of 14,365 patients, Male patients with Mild hearing loss have the maximum correlation coefficient followed by Moderate, Moderately severe, Profound and Severe hearing loss. In the case of female patients Mild Hearing loss has the maximum correlation coefficient. Result of this study may be helpful in planning and management of different programs related to hearing disability prevention. As most of the hearing loss is mild variety and it slowly progress to other form of severe hearing loss, early intervention is very helpful in reducing the severity thus disability.
