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

aimsThis study aimed to characterize the topological alterations and classification performance of high-order functional connectivity (HOFC) networks in cognitively preserved patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), relative to low-order FC (LOFC) networks.

methodsThe topological metrics of the constructed networks (LOFC and HOFC) obtained from fifty-one cognitively normal patients with PD and 60 matched healthy control subjects were analyzed. The discriminative abilities were evaluated using machine learning approach.

resultsThe HOFC networks in the PD group showed decreased segregation and integration. The normalized clustering coefficient and small-worldness in the HOFC networks were correlated to motor performance. The altered nodal centralities (distributed in the precuneus, putamen, lingual gyrus, supramarginal gyrus, motor area, postcentral gyrus and inferior occipital gyrus) and intermodular FC (frontoparietal and visual networks, sensorimotor and subcortical networks) were specific to HOFC networks. Several highly connected nodes (thalamus, paracentral lobule, calcarine fissure and precuneus) and improved classification performance were found based on HOFC profiles.

conclusionThis study identified disrupted topology of functional interactions at a high level with extensive alterations in topological properties and improved differentiation ability in patients with PD prior to clinical symptoms of cognitive impairment, providing complementary insights into complex neurodegeneration in PD.
