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

A neural field model of the corticothalamic-basal ganglia system is developed that describes enhanced beta activity within subthalamic and pallidal circuits in Parkinson's disease (PD) via system resonances. A model of deep brain stimulation (DBS) of typical clinical targets, the subthalamic nucleus (STN) and globus pallidus internus (GPi), is added and studied for several distinct stimulation protocols that are used for treatment of the motor symptoms of PD and that reduce pathological beta band activity (13-30 Hz) in the corticothalamic-basal ganglia network. The resulting impact of DBS on enhanced beta activity in the STN and GPi, as well as cortico-subthalamic and cortico-pallidal coherence, are studied. Both STN-DBS and GPi-DBS are found to be effective for suppressing peak STN and GPi power in the beta band, with GPi-DBS being slightly more effective in both the STN and the GPi for all stimulus protocols tested. The largest decrease in cortico-STN coherence is observed during STN-DBS, whereas GPi-DBS is most effective for reducing cortico-GPi coherence. A reduction of the pathologically large STN connection strengths that define the parkinsonian state results in enhanced 6 Hz activity and could thus represent a compensatory mechanism that has the side effect of driving parkinsonian tremor-like oscillations. This model provides a method for systematically testing effective DBS protocols that agrees with experimental and clinical findings. Furthermore, the model suggests GPi-DBS and STN-DBS have distinct impacts on elevated synchronization between the basal ganglia and motor cortex in PD.
