Dopaminergic imaging separates normal pressure hydrocephalus from its mimics.
Article in Journal of neurology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
objectiveIdiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) and iNPH mimics (i.e., Parkinson's disease, progressive supranuclear palsy or dementia with Lewy bodies) share similar clinical features, and discrimination between both conditions relies on invasive time-consuming investigations. This study aims to compare [
methodsAmong 56 patients with a suspicion of iNPH (76.5 ± 6.1 years; 23.2% women), 26 fulfilled the iNPH diagnostic criteria and the remaining 30 were classified as iNPH mimics. Patients were visually categorized as having normal or abnormal [
