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

The link between alpha Synuclein (α-Syn) phosphorylation and Parkinson's disease pathogenesis has not been fully elucidated, in part due to analytical methods with finite specificity and sensitivity, resulting in conflicting data on pathophysiological levels of the protein.One factor hindering the assessment of the role of pSer129 α-Syn is the lack of a fit for purpose assay. Antibodies were assessed for quantification of pSer129 α-Syn, resulting in a sensitive and specific assay suitable for use in Parkinson's disease and control CSF, with no significant difference found between the two populations. Total α-Syn was measured using a commercial kit, demonstrating a positive correlation between total and pSer129 α-Syn.This adds to available methods for pSer129 α-Syn in support of α-synucleinopathy research.
