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

Progressive Supranuclear Palsy-Parkinsonism Predominant (PSP-P) is associated with moderate responsiveness to levodopa treatment and a possible lack of typical PSP milestones. The clinical manifestation of PSP-P poses difficulties in neurological examination. In the early stages it is often misdiagnosed as Parkinson's Disease, and in the more advanced stages PSP-P shows more symptoms in common with Multiple System Atrophy-Parkinsonian type (MSA-P). The small number of tools enabling differential diagnosis of PSP-P and MSA leads to the necessity of searching for parameters facilitating in vivo diagnosis. In this study, 14 patients with PSP-P and 21 patients with MSA-P were evaluated using Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography. Considering the fact that PSP is linked with frontal deficits, regions of the frontal lobe were assessed in the context of hypoperfusion and their possible usefulness in the differential diagnosis with MSA-P. The outcome of the work revealed that the right middle frontal gyrus was the region most significantly affected in PSP-P.
