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

objectiveTo investigate the changes in behaviors and brain structural network in patients with idiopathic rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (iRBD).

methodsTwenty patients with iRBD (iRBD group) and 22 healthy control subjects were evaluated using the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) and Hoehn-Yahr staging. Diffusion tensor imaging and graph- theoretical analysis were performed for analyzing the topological characteristics of brain structural networks of the patients, and the correlation between the behavioral changes and the changes in the topological characteristics of the brain networks was analyzed.

resultsThe UPDRS score was significantly higher in iRBD group than in the healthy control group (

conclusionsPatients with iRBD present with abnormal changes in mental condition, behaviors, emotions, activities of daily living and motor functions. The brain structural network of patient with iRBD still has a small-world property with abnormal global topological property and abnormal distribution of local topological property in the cortex, striatum and limbic system.
