Interactive effect of orthostatic hypotension on gray matter atrophy associated with hyposmia and RBD in de novo Parkinson's disease.
Article in Journal of neurology, 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
backgroundOrthostatic hypotension (OH) is a potential modifiable risk factor for cognitive impairment in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Although other risk factors for dementia, hyposmia and REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD), are closely associated with autonomic dysfunction in PD, little is known about how these risk factors influence cognitive function and cerebral pathology.
objectiveWe investigated how these three factors contribute to gray matter atrophy by considering the interaction of OH with hyposmia and RBD.
methodsWe analyzed cortical thickness, subcortical gray matter volume, and cognitive measures from 78 patients with de novo PD who underwent the head-up tilt test for the diagnosis of OH.
resultsWhole-brain analyses with Monte Carlo corrections revealed that hyposmia was associated with decreased cortical thickness in a marginal branch of the cingulate sulcus among patients with OH, and cortical thickness in this area correlated with cognitive functioning only in patients with OH. Subcortical gray matter volume analysis indicated that severe RBD was associated with decreased volume in the left hippocampus and bilateral amygdala among patients with OH.
conclusionEven in early PD, OH exerts effects on gray matter atrophy and cognitive dysfunction by interacting with RBD and hyposmia. OH might exacerbate cerebral pathology induced by hyposmia or RBD.
