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

purpose of reviewUnderstanding the pathophysiologic underpinnings of lateral trunk flexion (LTF) in Parkinson disease (PD) has been growing. Adjusting antiparkinsonian medications, botulinum toxin, or surgical intervention has been found efficacious in some patients. Nevertheless, these treatments remain limited, often resulting in inadequate outcomes. We review patients with LTF with PD, including recent advancements in treatment and neuroimaging examination. RECENT

findingsThe basal ganglia system is a major contributing factor to LTF, and the therapeutic intervention also targets the basal ganglia system, including dystonic contraction. The perceptions of the postural verticality or spatial cognition of the correct body orientation promote the severity of LTF or result in a chronic condition with irreversible structural deformities.

conclusionThe combination of pharmacologic interventions with nonpharmacologic interventions, such as rehabilitation, might be needed to manage LTF, and the initiation of these treatments should be started as early as possible.
