Sleep disturbances in the speech-language variant of progressive supranuclear palsy.
Article in Parkinsonism & related disorders, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
introductionProgressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) variants other than PSP-Richardson Syndrome (PSP-RS) have been recognized, including PSP with speech and language problems (PSP-SL). Given the reported sleep disruptions in PSP-RS, we investigated sleep abnormalities in PSP-SL.
methodsFour sleep-related screening questions were given to the caregivers of 90 patients with PSP-SL (59 suggestive of PSP-SL and 31 possible PSP-SL) and 71 probable PSP-RS (prob. PSP-RS) patients.
resultsAt least one sleep-related disturbance was observed in 35.6% of suggestive of PSP-SL, 38.7% of possible PSP-SL, and 67.6% of prob. PSP-RS, the most common being "unable to fall or stay asleep". Prob. PSP-RS showed higher frequency of "screaming or talking in sleep", "acting out dreams", and "unable to fall or stay asleep" compared to both PSP-SL groups, but did not differ from possible PSP-SL in "excessive daytime sleepiness".
conclusionSleep abnormalities are common in PSP-SL, but less frequent than prob.PSP-RS.
