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) is a common neurodegenerative disease with progressive gait, cognition, and overall functional decline. Surface area changes are frequently seen with aging. In neurodegenerative diseases, the changes can be evident with disease progression. The current study aimed to study the regional microstructural alterations using surface-based morphometry to correlate with gait measures of the pace and rhythm domains in PD patients. We hypothesize that specific regional surface changes can be associated with PD gait impairments. Surface analysis might provide a useful tool for assessing PD for functional status and specific motor domains, such as gait in PD, and potentially could serve as an imaging marker in conjunction with other imaging markers. Twenty-seven PD patients and 37 healthy controls were included. The clinical assessment included Mini-Mental State Exanimation, PD motor assessment, clinical gait testing, and objective/quantitative gait assessment. For patients with PD, all motor and gait testing were performed during both OFF and ON medication states. Three Tesla MRI and high-resolution 3D structural images were acquired with an MP-RAGE pulse sequence. Structural image data preprocessing was performed using the DPABISurf toolbox. Clinical characteristics between PD and control group were compared, and correlation between the surface area and behavioral data were analyzed. At the left lateral temporal cortex (LTC) and right inferior parietal cortex (IPC), PD patients have significantly larger surface areas when compared to controls (
