Using Clinical Scales and Digital Measures to Explore Falls in Patients with Lewy Body Dementia.
Article in Digital biomarkers. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Introduction: PRESENCE was a phase 2 clinical trial assessing the efficacy of mevidalen, a D1 receptor positive allosteric modulator, for symptomatic treatment of Lewy body dementia (LBD). Mevidalen demonstrated improvements in motor and non-motor features of LBD, global functioning, and actigraphy-measured activity and daytime sleep. Adverse events (AEs) of fall were numerically increased in mevidalen-treated participants. Methods: A subset of PRESENCE participants wore a wrist actigraphy device for 2-week periods pre-, during, and posttreatment. Actigraphy sleep and activity measures were derived per period and analyzed to assess for their association with participants' reports of an AE of fall. Prespecified baseline and treatment-emergent clinical characteristics were also included in the retrospective analysis of falls. Independent-samples Results: A trend toward more falls was observed with mevidalen treatment (31/258 mevidalen-treated vs. 4/86 in placebo-treated participants: Conclusion: The association of falls with worse baseline disease severity and higher BMI and overall trend toward improvements on cognitive and motor scales suggest that falls in PRESENCE may be related to increased activity in mevidalen-treated participants at greater risk for falling. Future studies to confirm this hypothesis using fall diaries and digital assessments are necessary.
