Transcranial sonography image characteristics in different Parkinson's disease subtypes.
Article in Neurological sciences : official journal of the Italian Neurological Society and of the Italian Society of Clinical Neurophysiology, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Recently, Parkinson's disease (PD) has been classified into three subtypes: postural instability gait difficulty (PIGD), tremor dominate (TD), and indeterminate PD. Transcranial sonography (TCS) is considered to be an important tool to diagnose PD. However, it is uncertain that whether there are differences in TCS image characteristics in different PD subtypes, so 373 idiopathic PD (188 PIGD, 108 TD, 77 indeterminate PD) were registered and received TCS in our investigation; also, the association between clinical characteristics and TCS results in different PD subtypes was analyzed. In accordance with several previous studies, we detected substantia nigra (SN) by TCS in 85.4% of patients with idiopathic PD; we concluded that PIGD patients had more serious disease than TD and indeterminate PD group (p < 0.05). They always had larger SN hyperechogenicity areas on TCS (p < 0.05), and we found that there was no correlation between SN hyperechogenicity and disease duration or severity (p > 0.05). Similarly, abnormal brainstem raphe signal was also more often in PIGD group than in TD and indeterminate PD group (p < 0.05), which might imply that PIGD group was vulnerable to suffer from depression in the future.
