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

Introduction: Brain SPECT with Objective: To compare results of SPECT-TRODAT with clinical findings in patients with Parkinsonism. Methods: We evaluated 153 outpatients. SPECT-TRODAT results were visually analyzed into normal, abnormal, symmetric, and asymmetric, and according to the degree of impairment into mild, moderate, marked, and severe (1-4). Results: A direct relationship was found between motor scores severity (MDS-UPDRS-III) and SPECT-TRODAT-reduced binding in general, in the group of patients with synucleinopathies (rho = 0.258, Conclusion: The authors concluded that the SPECT with 99mTc-TRODAT-1 was mainly useful in differentiating between synucleinopathies and secondary Parkinsonism.
