1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder that is predominantly known for its motor symptoms but is also accompanied by non-motor symptoms, including anxiety. Objective: The underlying neurobiological substrates and brain network changes associated with comorbid anxiety in PD require further exploration. Methods: An analysis of oscillation-specific nodal properties in patients with and without anxiety was conducted using resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) and graph theory. We used a band-pass filtering approach to differentiate oscillatory frequency bands for subsequent functional connectivity (FC) and graph analyses. Results: The study included 68 non-anxiety PD (naPD) patients, 62 anxiety PD (aPD) patients, and 64 healthy controls (NC). Analyses of nodal betweenness centrality (BC), degree centrality (DC), and efficiency were conducted across multiple frequency bands. The findings indicated no significant differences in BC among naPD, aPD, and NC within the 0.01-0.08 Hz frequency range. However, we observed a specific reduction in BC at narrower frequency ranges in aPD patients, as well as differing patterns of change in DC and efficiency, which are believed to reflect the neurophysiological bases of anxiety symptoms in PD. Conclusions: Differential oscillation-specific nodal characteristics have been identified in PD patients with anxiety, suggesting potential dysregulations in brain network dynamics. These findings emphasize the complexity of brain network alterations in anxiety-associated PD and identify oscillatory frequencies as potential biomarkers. The study highlights the importance of considering oscillatory frequency bands in the analysis of brain network changes.
