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

purposeResting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (Rs-fMRI) can be used to investigate the alteration of resting-state brain networks (RSNs) in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) when compared with healthy controls (HCs). The aim of this study was to identify the differences between individual RSNs and reveal the most important discriminatory characteristic of RSNs between the HCs and PDs.

methodsThis study used Rs-fMRI data of 23 patients with PD and 18 HCs. Group independent component analysis (ICA) was performed, and 23 components were extracted by spatially overlapping the components with a template RSN. The extracted components were used in the following three methods to compare RSNs of PD patients and HCs: (1) a subject-specific score based on group RSNs and a dual-regression approach (namely RSN scores); (2) voxel-wise comparison of the RSNs in the PD patient and HC groups using a nonparametric permutation test; and (3) a hierarchical clustering analysis of RSNs in the PD patient and HC groups.

resultsThe results of RSN scores showed a significant decrease in connectivity in seven ICs in patients with PD compared with HCs, and this decrease was particularly striking on the lateral and medial posterior occipital cortices. The results of hierarchical clustering of the RSNs revealed that the cluster of the default mode network breaks down into the three other clusters in PD patients.

conclusionWe found various characteristics of the alteration of the RSNs in PD patients compared with HCs. Our results suggest that different characteristics of RSNs provide insights into the biological mechanism of PD.
