Pain in atypical parkinsonism, vascular parkinsonism, and Parkinson's disease.
Article in Neurological sciences : official journal of the Italian Neurological Society and of the Italian Society of Clinical Neurophysiology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundPain is a common symptom in Parkinson's disease (PD) and is considered a pre-motor symptom suggesting sensory involvement in the pre-motor stage. Pain in other parkinsonian disorders such as atypical parkinsonism and vascular parkinsonism (VP) has been investigated in only a few studies. The characteristics of pain in other parkinsonian disorders, including the temporal relationships between pain and motor symptoms, were investigated in the present study.
methodsA total of 236 PD, 42 multiple system atrophy (MSA), 31 progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), and 38 VP patients were screened for pain. After excluding patients with dementia and pain not related to PD, the presence of pain, severity, onset, type, and location were compared among the four patient groups.
resultsDifference was not observed in pain presence (χ
conclusionThe present study results suggest that pain can be a pre-motor symptom in PD, MSA, and VP but not in PSP, implying different pain pathogeneses in these disorders. Pain locations were other for each group, which requires further investigation with a more extensive study cohort.
