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

Differential diagnosis of progressive supranuclear palsy remains difficult, especially when it comes to the parkinsonism predominant type (PSP-P), which has a more favorable clinical course. In this entity, especially during the advanced stages, significant clinical overlaps with other tauopathic parkinsonian syndromes and multiple system atrophy (MSA) can be observed. Among the available additional diagnostic methods in every-day use, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) focused specifically on the evaluation of the mesencephalon seems to be crucial as it is described as a parameter associated with PSP. There is growing interest in relation to more advanced mesencephalic parameters, such as the magnetic resonance parkinsonism index (MRPI) and MRPI 2.0. Based on the evaluation of 74 patients, we demonstrate that only the mesencephalon/pons ratio and MRPI show a significant difference between PSP-P and MSA-parkinsonian type (MSA-P). Interestingly, this differential feature was not maintained by MRPI 2.0. The mesencephalon to pons ratio (M/P), MRPI and MRPI 2.0 were not found to be feasible for the differentiation of PSP-P from other atypical tauopathic syndromes.
