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

Hearing loss (HL) is the most common sensory disorder, affecting over 430 million individuals, and its prevalence continues to rise steadily. Thyroid hormone (TH) signaling is a key endocrine regulator that critically governs key processes in cochlear development, such as sensory hair cell differentiation, ion channel expression, and synaptic maturation. TH deficiency can lead to different types of hearing loss, with or without cochlear structural deformity. Moreover, TH deficiency in pregnant women can cause hearing impairment in newborns. This review synthesizes the mechanisms by which TH signaling contributes to cochlear development and pathogenesis of hearing loss. By integrating insights from human studies and animal models, we discuss the prognostic significance and clinical applicability of TH signaling levels, highlighting the indispensable role of TH signaling in advancing personalized strategies for the diagnosis and management of HL.
