Risk factors for possible REM sleep behavior disorders: A community-based study in Beijing.
Article in Neurology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers.
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
objectiveTo explore the risk factors for idiopathic REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD) in a community population in Beijing.
methodsParticipants aged 55 years and above were recruited from the Beijing Longitudinal Study on Aging II cohort. We identified individuals with possible RBD (pRBD) using the validated RBD Questionnaire-Hong Kong in 2010. A series of environmental, lifestyle, and other potential risk factors were assessed via standardized questionnaires in 2009. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to investigate the association between the studied factors and pRBD.
resultsOf 7,225 participants who were free of parkinsonism and dementia, 219 (3.0%) individuals were considered as having pRBD. Participants with pRBD reported more nonmotor and motor symptoms of Parkinson disease (PD) with adjusted odds ratios (ORs) ranging from 1.10 to 4.40. Participants with pRBD were more likely to report a family history of parkinsonism or dementia (OR 3.03, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.23-7.46). There was a significant association between pRBD and self-reported hyperlipidemia (OR 1.51, 95% CI 1.09-2.10), ever smoking (OR 1.79, 95% CI 1.20-2.65), prior carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning (OR 2.30, 95% CI 1.39-3.83), and nonoccupational exposure to pesticides (OR 2.21, 95% CI 1.40-3.50).
conclusionOur study replicated previously reported associations between pRBD and hyperlipidemia, smoking, pesticide exposure, and several prodromal PD symptoms. We also found previously unreported links with a positive family history of parkinsonism or dementia and CO poisoning. Risk factor profiles for pRBD partially resemble those defined for PD, but also differ in distinct ways.
