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

Background and Objective: Gait disturbances are common in older people and are associated with adverse consequences, e.g., falls and institutionalization. Enlarged perivascular spaces in the basal ganglia (BG-EPVS) are considered an magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) marker of cerebral small vessel diseases (CSVD). However, the consequences of BG-EPVS are largely unknown. Previous studies showed that other CSVD markers were related to gait disturbances. However, the relation between BG-EPVS and gait performance is unclear. Therefore, we aimed to explore the relation between BG-EPVS and gait performance in elderly individuals. Methods: We recruited older people with CSVD in the Neurology Department of our hospital from December 1, 2020 to October 31, 2021. Participants with BG-EPVS > 20 on the unilateral side of the basal ganglia slice containing the maximum number were classified into the BG-EPVS group ( Results: The BG-EPVS group had a slower gait speed and cadence, shorter stride length, longer stance phase percentage, smaller pre-swing angle and footfall, and lower Tinetti gait test and balance test scores compared with those in the control group ( Conclusion: Large numbers of BG-EPVS were independently related to gait disturbances in older people with CSVD. This finding provides information about the consequences of BG-EPVS and risk factors for gait disturbances.
