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

Objectives: To explore molecular diagnoses in cochlear implantation (CI) recipients and evaluate CI outcomes in patients with Methods: Whole-exome sequencing and biomedical informatics were used to identify potential genetic causes in 467 individuals with congenital sensorineural hearing loss. We reviewed six CI recipients with Results: Nine Conclusion: CI significantly improved auditory and communication abilities in individuals with
