The path linking excessive daytime sleepiness and activity of daily living in Parkinson's disease: the longitudinal mediation effect of autonomic dysfunction.

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
backgroundExcessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) and autonomic dysfunction have been verified to impair activity of daily living (ADL) in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Whether EDS can affect ADL in PD patients through autonomic dysfunction is still unclear. The purpose of this study is to explore the longitudinal mediation effect of autonomic dysfunction between EDS and ADL.
methodsData used in this study were from six-follow-up visits of 413 patients with newly diagnosed PD from the Parkinson's Progression Markers Initiative (PPMI). We used latent growth mediation modeling (LGMM) to explore whether the autonomic dysfunction is a longitudinal mediator between EDS and ADL.
resultsThe results showed that as the disease progresses, EDS (P < 0.001) and autonomic dysfunction (P < 0.001) gradually worsened and ADL (P < 0.001) gradually decreased in PD patients. In addition, the more severe the patients' EDS symptom, the more worsened the symptoms of autonomic dysfunction, which result in a decrease in ADL. Both the intercept (95% CI: 0.142, 0.308) and the slope (95% CI: 0.083, 0.331) of autonomic dysfunction showed a partial mediating effect, and a longitudinal mediation effect was presented.
conclusionLongitudinal changes in EDS affect the ADL of PD patients directly or indirectly by affecting the symptoms of autonomic dysfunction. Controlling the symptoms of autonomic dysfunction may improve the ADL of PD patients with EDS.
