Investigation of the nonmotor symptoms in patients with STN-DBS therapy in comparison with those without STN-DBS.

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
The impact of STN-DBS on NMS remains rather as an underestimated topic. Besides, the significance of NMSs in QOL indexes of PD subjects with STN-DBS is unknown. We primarily aimed to evaluate the NMSs and their significance in QOL indexes in PD subjects comparatively with and without STN-DBS therapy. We enrolled all consecutive PD subjects with and without STN-DBS who applied to our movement disorders outpatient clinics between January/2023 and September/2023. We performed comprehensive assessments of the motor and nonmotor features including the clinical scales of Movement Disorder Society-sponsored revision of the MDS-UPDRS, NMSS, HAM-A, HAM-D, and the PDQ-39. Overall, 48 PD subjects with STN-DBS and 161 without STN-DBS treatment were included. The comparative analyses revealed that the sub-scores of the MDS-UPDRS-2, -3 and -4 were higher in the STN-DBS group. However, the MDS-UDPRS-1 and the total scores of the NMSS were similar between groups. Among eight subitems of the NMSS, only, the sub scores of the mood/cognition and the gastrointestinal tract differed. Remarkably, the significant correlations between the scores of the QOL and the NMSS scores in the STN-DBS (-) group, did not persist within the STN-DBS group. Remarkably, the correlations between the NMSS and PQQ-39 disappeared for most of the sub scores within the STN-DBS group. We found indirect evidence regarding the benefit of STN-DBS therapy on NMSs in our cross-sectional study. Besides, we found weaker impact of NMSs in QOL indexes in PD subjects with STN-DBS therapy.
