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

Oral rasagiline (Azilect®) as monotherapy or as an adjunct to levodopa provides a useful option in the symptomatic treatment of adult patients with Parkinson's disease. In patients with early Parkinson's disease, monotherapy with rasagiline 1 mg/day improved symptoms of the disease relative to placebo. As adjunctive therapy to levodopa in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease, rasagiline 0.5 or 1 mg/day significantly reduces the total daily 'off' time. Rasagiline is generally well tolerated when administered as monotherapy or as adjunctive therapy.
