Parkinson's Disease and Diabetes Mellitus: Individual and Combined Effects on Motor, Cognitive, and Psychosocial Functions.

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/
objectiveUnderstanding the effects of multimorbidity on motor and cognitive function is important for tailoring therapies. Individuals with diabetes mellitus (DM) have a greater risk of developing Parkinson's disease (PD). This study investigated if individuals with comorbid PD and DM experienced poorer functional ability compared to individuals with only PD or DM.
methodsA cross-sectional analysis of 424 individuals: healthy older adults (HOA), n = 170; PD without DM (PD-only), n = 162; DM without PD (DM-only), n = 56; and comorbid PD and DM (PD+DM), n = 36. Motor, motor-cognitive, cognitive, and psychosocial functions and PD motor symptoms were compared among groups using a two-way analyses of covariance with PD and DM as factors.
resultsThe PD-only and DM-only participants exhibited slower gait, worse balance, reduced strength, and less endurance. Motor-cognitive function was impaired in individuals with PD but not DM. DM-only participants exhibited impaired inhibition. Individuals with comorbid PD+DM had worse PD motor symptoms and exhibited impaired attention compared to the PD-only group.
conclusionsHaving PD or DM was independently associated with poorer physical and mental quality of life, depression, and greater risk for loss of function. Both PD and DM have independent adverse effects on motor function. Comorbid PD+DM further impairs attention compared to the effect of PD-only, suggesting the importance of therapies focusing on attention. Understanding the functional ability levels for motor and cognitive domains will enhance the clinical care for PD, DM, and PD+DM.
