Force coordination during bimanual task performance in Parkinson's disease.
Article in Experimental brain research, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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
We investigated within- and between-hand grip-load force coordination in medically managed Parkinson's disease (PD) patients during bimanual tasks involving realistic actions. Increased grip force production and evidence of bradykinesia were expected in PD patients. Force coordination indices were also expected to be reduced in PD, due to impaired anticipatory force control. Increased grip force, bradykinesia, and abnormal load force production were exhibited in PD patients as compared to healthy controls. Indices of between-hand load force coordination, but not between-hand grip force coordination, were reduced in PD patients. Discrepancies in the strength of within-hand force coordination with respect to hand action were also noted in PD patients. Increased grip force production, in conjunction with abnormal load force production, may result in reduced fine motor control in PD patients during daily activities. Integrating quantitative analyses of realistic motor function in clinic may assist clinicians in evaluating the effectiveness of medical intervention in PD patients.
