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

Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is a progressive atypical parkinsonian syndrome characterised by postural instability, supranuclear ophthalmoplegia, dysarthria, dysphagia, executive dysfunction and other features. This clinical presentation represents the classic PSP-Richardson syndrome (PSP-RS). However, several other clinical subtypes have been recognised, including PSP-parkinsonism (PSP-P), probably the second most common PSP variant. Unlike PSP-RS, PSP-P often presents with an asymmetric onset, tremor and a moderate initial response to levodopa, especially during the first years of the disease, thus resembling Parkinson's disease (PD). It runs a more favourable course, but over time, PSP-P may evolve clinically into PSP-RS. Therefore, it may seem that PSP-P stands clinically between PD and PSP. There are several peculiarities that can distinguish PSP-P from these entities. As there is lack of systematic reviews on PSP-P in the literature, we decided to summarise all the necessary data about the epidemiology, clinical picture, neuroimaging, genetics and other aspects of this PSP variant in order to provide complete information for the reader.
