The Role of Electrochemical Skin Conductance as a Screening Test of Cardiovascular Autonomic Neuropathy in Patients with Parkinson's Disease.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Autonomic disorders have been recognized as an important non-motor feature in Parkinson's disease (PD). However, there is a paucity of information on the presence and severity of cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (CAN) among different motor phenotypes. The aims of this study were to examine the feasibility of electrochemical skin conductance (ESC) measured by Sudoscan as a screening service for CAN in patients with PD and investigate the severity of CAN among different motor phenotypes. Design: This was a cross-sectional observational study that enrolled 63 patients with PD. Patients were divided into three phenotypes, postural instability/gait difficulty (PIGD), tremor-dominant (TD), and akinetic-rigid (AR), according to their motor symptoms. Cardiovascular autonomic function was measured, and the presence and severity of CAN was determined according to the composite autonomic scoring scale (CASS). Functional scores were measured by the Hoehn and Yahr (HY) stage and the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS). The median HY stage was 2.0 [1.5, 3.0]. Median UPDRS total score was 23.0 (17.5, 30.5), 10.0 (6.0, 11.0) and 14.0 (6.3, 23.8) in groups of PIGD, TD and AR, respectively (
