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

objectivesParkinson's disease (PD) commonly affects visuospatial navigation causing postural instability and falls. Our overarching aim was to examine the visual and vestibular systems governing visuospatial navigation in PD. We hypothesize that PD affects vestibular and visual motion perception but to a different extent. The effects of PD on motion perception are dependent on the severity of the disease.

methodsThe two-alternative-forced-choice task objectively measured the motion perception during two experiments. One experiment examined the vestibular motion perception with en bloc movement of the platform. The second experiment tested the visual motion perception using an immersive virtual reality goggle.

resultsWe found that accuracy, threshold, and precision of vestibular perception were more impaired in advanced-PD patients compared to those with a mild form of the disease. The parameters also correlated with the disease duration, overall axial motor impairment causing postural instability and falls, and subjective rating of the balance function. Such changes were present but less severe in visual motion perception.

conclusionWe conclude that PD affects motion perception in the visual and vestibular domains in a severity-dependent manner. The impact of the disease in the vestibular domain is more severe compared to the visual domain. © 2020 International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society.
