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

Introduction: Patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) are at a higher risk of hospital admissions compared to the general population. We studied the causes and factors associated with admissions among patients with PD over 6 years. Methods: We included all PD admissions between 1 January 2016 and 31 December 2021. Other causes of parkinsonism were excluded. Causes of admissions were divided into PD-related (direct or indirect) or non-PD-related. The type of admission was categorized into emergency or elective. Results: We identified 605 hospital admissions (259 patients with PD); 345 (57.0%) were PD-related and 260 (43%) were non-PD-related. Emergency PD admissions contributed to 50.4% of all admissions, most commonly from respiratory infection (23%). PD admissions in comparison to non-PD admissions were associated with worse disease severity (HY ≥ 3; Conclusion: Respiratory infection was the leading cause of hospital admission and a significant independent predictor of unfavorable hospital admission outcomes (death and complications). PD-related admissions were associated with disease severity and led to more complications and longer hospital stays. Non-PD-related admissions were associated with comorbidities.
