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

Parkinson's disease (PD) patients require frequent office visits where they are assessed for health state changes using Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS). Inertial wearable sensor devices present a unique opportunity to supplement these assessments with continuous monitoring. In this work, we analyze kinematic features from sensor devices located on feet, wrists, lumbar and sternum for 35 PD subjects as they performed walk trials in two clinical visits, one for each of their self-reported ON and OFF motor states. Our results show that a few features related to subject's whole-body turns and pronation-supination motor events can accurately infer cardinal features of PD like bradykinesia and posture instability and gait disorder (PIGD). In addition, these features can be measured from only two sensors, one located on the affected wrist and one on the lumbar region, thus potentially reducing patient burden of wearing sensors while supporting continuous monitoring in out of office settings.
