Kinect-based objective assessment of the acute levodopa challenge test in parkinsonism: a feasibility study.

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
introductionThe acute levodopa challenge test (ALCT) is an important and valuable examination but there are still some shortcomings with it. We aimed to objectively assess ALCT based on a depth camera and filter out the best indicators.
methodsFifty-nine individuals with parkinsonism completed ALCT and the improvement rate (IR, which indicates the change in value before and after levodopa administration) of the Movement Disorder Society-Sponsored Revision of the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale part III (MDS-UPDRS III) was calculated. The kinematic features of the patients' movements in both the OFF and ON states were collected with an Azure Kinect depth camera.
resultsThe IR of MDS-UPDRS III was significantly correlated with the IRs of many kinematic features for arising from a chair, pronation-supination movements of the hand, finger tapping, toe tapping, leg agility, and gait (r
conclusionThis study demonstrated the feasibility of measuring the effect of levodopa and objectively assessing ALCT based on kinematic data derived from an Azure Kinect-based system.
