Factors correlated with excessive daytime sleepiness in patients with Parkinson's disease: A polysomnography study.
Article in Brain and behavior, 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
objectiveTo explore the factors correlated with excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD).
methodsA total of 239 PD patients were divided into two groups based on the presence of EDS (Epworth Sleepiness Scale score≥10) (PD-EDS vs. PD-non-EDS). Participants underwent an extensive assessment to determine demographic features, disease severity, polysomnography characteristics, and nonmotor symptoms.
resultsOf the 239 patients, 56 patients (23.4%) were classified as having PD combined with EDS. Binary logistic regression analysis showed that fatigue (Fatigue Severity Scale [FSS] score ≥4) (odds ratio [OR] [95% CI] = 4.897 [2.376-10.095], p < .001) and the respiratory-related microarousal index (OR [95% CI] = 2.063 [1.085-3.923], p = .027) were independent risk factors for EDS in PD patients. A priori-determined stratified analysis showed that after adjustment for confounding factors, the association of the respiratory-related microarousal index with EDS was significant (OR = 4.404, 95% CI 1.673-11.592, p trend = .036) in patients with respiratory arousal index scores in the highest quintile compared with those with scores in the lowest quintile.
conclusionOur data revealed a close association among the respiratory-related microarousal index, FSS scores, and EDS. It can be speculated that fragmented sleep and pathological abnormalities of the central nervous system resulting in changes in arousal are major influencing factors of EDS in PD.
