Conjunctival impression cytology and tear film analysis in early-stage Parkinson's disease.
Article in European journal of ophthalmology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
PurposeWe aimed to evaluate conjunctival impression cytology (CIC) findings, tear parameters, and ocular surface in early-stage Parkinson's patients and compare the results with the control group.MethodsThis cross-sectional comparative study included 49 early-stage Parkinson's Disease (PD) patients and 45 healthy individuals as a control group. Clinical staging of Parkinson's patients was performed according to the Hoehn-Yahr Scale. Those with stages 1 and 2 were defined as early-stage PD. Ocular surface disease index (OSDI) questionnaire, tear breakup time (TBUT), Schirmer test, and CIC were applied to the patient and control groups.ResultsThere was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of mean age and gender (
