Urinary incontinence-related effects on functional connectivity circuits in persons with Parkinson's disease.
Article in Neurourology and urodynamics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
introductionUrinary incontinence (UI) is a common and disruptive symptom of Parkinson's disease (PD). This study aimed to identify neural correlates associated with UI among PD patients with UI (UI-PD) compared to those PD patients without UI (nonUI-PD) with the expectation of demonstrating increased functional connectivity (FC) between areas in the striatum and limbic system and decreased FC in executive areas.
methodsrsfMRI and T1w data (n = 119) were retrieved from the Parkinson's Progression Markers Initiative (PPMI). Resting-state FC analyses assessed temporal covariance with anterior cingulate gyrus, precuneus, and putamen seed regions.
resultsThe UI-PD group (n = 32, 16 females) showed significantly greater positive FC between the bilateral putamen seed and the right caudate and right thalamus (p < 0.01), relative to individuals with PD but who did not have UI (n = 87, 18 females). The UI-PD group showed greater negative FC between the anterior cingulate seed and right angular gyrus (p < 0.01) relative to nonUI-PD.
conclusionIndividuals with PD and UI display stronger FC within neural circuits likely affected by PD such as between the putamen and caudate, as well as within those associated with brain bladder control, compared to persons with PD and without UI. Clinical application based on this study's results can provide greater discernment of treatment strategies for UI-PD patients.
