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

REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD) has a tighter link with synucleinopathies than other neurodegenerative disorders. Parkinson's Disease (PD) patients with RBD have a more severe motor and cognitive impairment; biomarkers for RBD are currently unavailable. Synaptic accumulation of α-Syn oligomers and their interaction with SNARE proteins is responsible for synaptic dysfunction in PD. We verified whether oligomeric α-Syn and SNARE components in neural-derived extracellular vesicles (NDEVs) in serum could be biomarkers for RBD. Forty-seven PD patients were enrolled, and the RBD Screening Questionnaire (RBDSQ) was compiled. A cut-off score > 6 to define probable RBD (p-RBD) and probable non-RBD (p non-RBD) was used. NDEVs were isolated from serum by immunocapture, and oligomeric α-Syn and SNARE complex components VAMP-2 and STX-1 were measured by ELISA. NDEVs' STX-1A resulted in being decreased in p-RBD compared to p non-RBD PD patients. A positive correlation between NDEVs' oligomeric α-Syn and RBDSQ total score was found (
