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

Parkinsonism can be caused by a variety of factors, such as drugs, vascular disease, toxicity, infection, and autoimmune, neoplastic, metabolic and functional diseases. Parkinsonism is associated with both motor and nonmotor clinical symptoms. Notably, the accurate diagnosis of Parkinson's disease and parkinsonism remains challenging. Meningioma is the most common type of extraparenchymal brain tumor, which typically presents with headaches, focal symptoms and cranial nerve symptoms. Parkinsonism is a rare initial symptom of meningioma. The present report describes an unusual case of a 70-year-old man who presented with tremors, pill-rolling tremors and left-sided rigidity. In addition, the patient exhibited asymmetrical bradykinesia (left > right) and mild postural instability. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a homogeneously enhanced cerebral falx meningioma and dilated tortuous veins. Dopamine transporter single-photon emission computed tomography revealed decreased
