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

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a widespread degenerative syndrome that affects the nervous system. Its early appearing symptoms include tremor, rigidity, and vocal impairment (dysphonia). Consequently, speech indicators are important in the identification of PD based on dysphonic signs. In this regard, computer-aided-diagnosis systems based on machine learning can be useful in assisting clinicians in identifying PD patients. In this work, we evaluate the performance of machine learning based techniques for PD diagnosis based on dysphonia symptoms. Several machine learning techniques were considered and trained with a set of twenty-two voice disorder measurements to classify healthy and PD patients. These machine learning methods included linear discriminant analysis (LDA),
