MRI-confirmed cochlear artery infarct clinically diagnosed in a patient with sickle cell disease: a case report.

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
purposeTo corroborate the vascular etiology of sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) utilizing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). PATIENT: A 24-year-old male with a history of sickle cell disease experienced sudden SNHL and right horizontal nystagmus, without accompanying vertigo.
interventionAudiometric evaluation revealed left-sided SNHL, predominantly affecting high frequencies. Video head impulse testing demonstrated isolated dysfunction of the left posterior semicircular canal. An urgent brain MRI identified a recent punctiform ischemic stroke in the frontal region. A subsequent MRI, conducted with a 4-hour delay and post-contrast enhancement, highlighted a hyperintense signal within the left cochlear region and the left posterior semicircular canal.
conclusionThe investigative results substantiate an infarction in the territory of the cochlear artery, precipitated by a vaso-occlusive event, thereby reinforcing the vascular hypothesis of cochleovestibular artery syndrome. This case underscores the congruence between clinical observations and delayed post-contrast MRI findings.
