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

backgroundMultiple system atrophy (MSA) and Parkinson's disease (PD) patients develop respiratory and cardiovascular disturbances including obstructive sleep apnea, orthostatic hypotension, and nocturnal stridor. We hypothesized that, associated with these respiratory and cardiovascular disturbances, hypoxic events may occur in MSA and PD brains that may play a role in disease progression. The objective of this study was to evaluate the presence of hypoxia in nonneurological controls and PD and MSA patients.

methodsMolecular levels of hypoxia markers were measured in postmortem brain tissue from controls and PD and MSA cases.

resultsMSA brain showed signs of chronic hypoxia characterized by the significant accumulation of the hypoxic marker HIF2α as compared to PD patients and controls. We detected no differences between MSA subtypes. Signs of hypoxia were also observed in PD patients with a clinical presentation similar to the MSA cases.

conclusionsThe results obtained from this study suggest a new alternative pathway associated with α-synucleinopathies that may contribute to the pathogenesis of these disorders. © 2020 The Authors.
