Cortical thickness in Parkinson disease: A coordinate-based meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 3 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
backgroundA growing number of studies have used surface-based morphometry (SBM) analyses to investigate gray matter cortical thickness (CTh) abnormalities in Parkinson disease (PD). However, the results across studies are inconsistent and have not been systematically reviewed. A clear picture of CTh alterations in PD remains lacked. Coordinate-based meta-analysis (CBMA) is a powerful tool to quantitatively integrate the results of individual voxel-based neuroimaging studies to identify the functional or structural neural substrates of particular neuropsychiatric disorders. Recently, CBMA has been updated for integrating SBM studies.
methodsThe online databases PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), WanFang, and SinoMed were comprehensively searched without language limitations from the database inception to February 2, 2020. We will include all SBM studies that compared regional CTh between patients with idiopathic PD and healthy control subjects at the whole-cortex level using Seed-based d Mapping with Permutation of Subject Images (SDM-PSI). In addition to the main CBMA, we will conduct several supplementary analyses to test the robustness of the results, such as jackknife analyses, subgroup analyses, heterogeneity analyses, publication bias analyses, and meta-regression analyses.
resultsThis CBMA will offer the latest evidence of CTh alterations in PD.
conclusionsConsistent and robust evidence of CTh alterations will feature brain morphometry of PD and may facilitate biomarker development. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER: CRD42020148775.
