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

backgroundPostural abnormalities in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients and unimpaired elderly are not well differentiated. Factors related to postural abnormality associated with PD are controversial.

objectiveWe assessed differences in postural change between PD patients and unimpaired elderly and elucidated factors related to abnormal posture in PD patients.

methodsWe measured the dropped head angle (DHA), anterior flexion angle (AFA), and lateral flexion angle (LFA) of the thoracolumbar spine of an unprecedented 1,117 PD patients and 2,732 general population participants (GPPs) using digital photographs. Two statistical analyses were used for elucidating factors related to these angles.

resultsIn GPPs, age was correlated with DHA, AFA, and LFA. DHAs, AFAs, and LFAs of PD patients and age-matched GPPs were 21.70° ± 14.40° and 13.13° ± 10.79°, 5.98° ± 12.67,°and - 3.82° ± 4.04°, and 0.86° ± 4.25° and 1.33° ± 2.16°, respectively. In PD patients, factors related to DHA were age, male sex, and H & Y stage during ON time. Factors related to AFA were age, duration of disease, H & Y stage during ON and OFF times, pain, vertebral disease, and bending to the right. A factor related to LFA was AFA.

conclusionsDHA and AFA of GGPs correlated with age and were larger in PD patients than those with in GPPs. Some PD patients showed angles far beyond the normal distribution. Thus, factors associated with disease aggravation affected postural abnormality in PD patients.
