Respiratory Dysfunction in Parkinson's Disease: Relation with Dysautonomia.
Article in Annals of Indian Academy of Neurology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease perceived as a motor disorder. It is most commonly associated with autonomic dysfunction, affecting multiple systems. This altered autonomic control might be reflected by a parallel change in the airway caliber of these patients. Aim: To correlate the pulmonary impairment in patients with Parkinson's disease with the underlying dysautonomia. Materials and Methods: A total of 30 patients with Parkinson's disease participated in the study. Heart rate (HR) variability was recorded for 5 min to assess the autonomic dysfunction, followed by impulse oscillometry (IOS) and spirometry. IOS being an effort independent technique uses sound waves at different frequencies (5-25 Hz) to measure the airway impedance. Results: There was a significant decrease in SDSD (6.60 (10.18-6.01) vs. 12.22 (13.95-11.30); Conclusion: Amongst the PD population, any changes in the parasympathetic component (responsible for bronchoconstriction) due to the underlying dysautonomia might be reflected as increased airway resistance in the pulmonary system.
