Online vs Face-to-Face Administration of Impulse Control Disorder Questionnaires in Parkinson Disease: Does Method Matter?
Article in Neurology. Clinical practice, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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: Social desirability bias, the tendency to underreport undesirable behaviors, may be one reason patients with Parkinson disease (PD) underreport symptoms of impulse control disorders (ICDs). Methods: We compared rates of ICD endorsement on questionnaires administered face-to-face and online in 60 patients with mild-to-moderate idiopathic PD. Participants also completed a self-report measure of social desirability. Results: We found a significantly higher prevalence of any ICD based on online (56.7%) vs in-person (33.3%) administration. Significantly higher endorsement of items related to hypersexuality in men and compulsive eating and buying in women were found with online administration. Social desirability bias was positively correlated with ICD symptom endorsement across all items and subscales. Discussion: The results highlight the importance of social context/setting and the need for sensitivity and discretion when screening for ICD symptoms. Although a higher level of symptom endorsement does not necessarily imply a greater level of accuracy, more work is needed to determine which method of administration is most accurate for clinical and research practice.
