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

Due to the increasing life expectancy and a higher incidence in the elderly, the number of elderly patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease will increase in the coming years. Since the burden of comorbidities is higher and medication side effects are more likely in the elderly, particularly in the light of frequently occurring polypharmacy, increased awareness and therapeutic knowledge is necessary. Besides the therapy of motor symptoms, non-motor symptoms, e. g. neuropsychiatric and autonomic disorders, also need to be addressed as they can also greatly impair the quality of life. In more advanced stages of the disease, non-pharmacological treatment, medical aids and caregiving become more important. A close integration in the social environment is of great importance for the implementation.
