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

introductionFrom newfound parasomnia to a marker of future synucleinopathy, since its first description in 1986, REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD) has been systematically tackled from virtually many viewpoints in basic, translational, and clinical studies. The time delay between RBD and synucleinopathy onset offers an exceptional window for observation and design of neuroprotective trials. In the last few years, research has focused on characterizing possible differences within RBD patients in order to draw potential profiles more or less susceptible to further neurodegeneration. Attention has been drawn towards autonomic dysfunction in RBD as one of such variables. OVERVIEW: In this review, REM sleep physiology and relevant brain anatomy is briefly mentioned and integrated with neuroanatomical and physiological concepts regarding the central autonomic network. A detailed summary of works showing the presence of autonomic dysfunction in RBD is provided, and clinical and electrophysiological features of RBD in synucleinopathies are discussed. A short overview of RBD in other neurodegenerative diseases is also provided.
