A Retrospective Imaging Evaluation of Presynaptic Dopaminergic Degeneration in Multiple System Atrophy with Levodopa Induced Dyskinesia.

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
Background: Multiple system atrophy (MSA) may develop levodopa-induced dyskinesia, which is dystonic and predominant in the orofacial region. We aimed to characterize the patterns of presynaptic dopaminergic degeneration in patients with MSA and dyskinesia using Methods: A single center cross-sectional retrospective study was conducted using consecutive chart review of patients with probable MSA who underwent Results: Twenty-five patients with probable MSA who had undergone dopamine transporter imaging were identified (age [mean ± standard error], 62.5 ± 1.7 years; disease duration, 48.8 ± 7.0 months). Four of them presented dyskinesia and 21 of patients did not. Twenty-five patients with MSA were visually classified into five grades: one Grade 1 (normal), two Grade 2 (eagle wing), three Grade 3 (mixed), nine Grade 4 (egg shape), and ten Grade 5 (burst striatum). All patients with MSA and dyskinesia were classified into Grade 5. Visual grading significantly correlated with disease duration and levodopa responsiveness. Conclusions: Severe presynaptic dopaminergic dysfunction in
