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

Constipation, one of the most common prodromal non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD), usually occurs several years earlier than the onset of motor symptoms. Previous studies have shown that constipation occurrence increases as the disease progresses. However, the mechanism underlying this pathologic disorder is not clear yet. Moreover, chronic constipation causes slowness in gastric emptying and, therefore, may lead to a delay in the absorption of medications for PD, including levodopa and dopamine agonists. Accordingly, it is necessary to understand how the pathophysiological factors contribute to constipation during PD as well as pursue precise and effective treatment strategies. In this review, we encapsulate the molecular mechanism of constipation underlying PD and update the progress in the treatments of PD-associated constipation.
