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

purpose of reviewSleep disturbances are an important nonmotor feature of Parkinson's disease (PD) that can cause polysomnographic (PSG) alterations. These alterations are already present in early PD and may be associated with a specific disease course. This systematic review describes the role of PSG variables as predictors of sleep dysfunction, motor and cognitive dysfunction progression in PD. RECENT

findingsNineteen longitudinal cohort studies were included. Their main findings were that (1) REM sleep behavioral events, REM sleep without atonia (RSWA), and electroencephalography (EEG) changes (mainly microsleep instability) are predictors of the development of REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD); (2) RBD, RSWA, and lower slow-wave sleep energy predict motor progression; (3) RBD, EEG slowing, and sleep spindles changes are predictors of cognitive deterioration; and (4) OSA is associated with severe motor and cognitive symptoms at baseline, with inconsistent findings on the effect of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy for these symptoms. The results of our systematic review support a role of the video-PSG in disease progression prediction in PD and its usefulness as a biomarker. However, future studies are needed to investigate whether treatment of these PSG abnormalities and sleep disturbances may have a neuroprotective effect on disease progression.
