A proof of concept: digital diary using 24-hour monitoring using wearable device for patients with Parkinson's disease in nursing homes.
Article in Frontiers in neurology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Introduction: In the advanced stages of Parkinson's disease (PD), motor complications such as wearing-off and dyskinesia are problematic and vary daily. These symptoms need to be monitored precisely to provide adequate care for patients with advanced PD. Methods: This study used wearable devices to explore biomarkers for motor complications by measuring multiple biomarkers in patients with PD residing in facilities and combining them with lifestyle and clinical assessments. Data on the pulse rate and activity index (metabolic equivalents) were collected from 12 patients over 30 days. Results: The pulse rate and activity index during the Conclusion: These results suggest the pulse rate and activity index combination would be a useful indicator of wearing-off and dyskinesia and that biometric information from wearable devices may function as a digital diary. Accumulating more cases and collecting additional data are necessary to verify our findings.
