[Dementia with Lewy bodies: old and new knowledge - Part 1: clinical aspects and diagnostics].
Review in Der Nervenarzt, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundDementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) is the second most common neurodegenerative dementia after Alzheimer's disease. Patients with DLB often have a poor prognosis, with worse outcomes than patients with Alzheimer's disease in terms of important parameters, such as quality of life, caregiver burden, health-related costs, frequency of hospital and nursing home admissions, shorter time to severe dementia, and lower survival. The DLB is frequently misdiagnosed and often undertreated. Therefore, it is critical to diagnose DLB as early as possible to ensure optimal care and treatment.
objectiveThe aim of this review article is to summarize the main recent findings on diagnostic tools, epidemiology and genetics of DLB.
resultsPrecise clinical diagnostic criteria exist for DLB that enable an etiologic assignment. Imaging techniques are used as standard in DLB, especially also to exclude non-neurodegenerative causes. In particular, procedures in nuclear medicine have a high diagnostic value. DISCUSSION: The diagnosis is primarily based on clinical symptoms, although the development of in vivo neuroimaging and biomarkers is changing the scope of clinical diagnosis as well as research into this devastating disease.
