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

Odor recognition memory (ORM) combines olfaction and episodic memory, both linked to dementia and impaired in Parkinson's Disease (PD). Measuring ORM may indicate early PD dementia and aid in selecting device-aided Parkinson therapy. This study investigates ORM capacity and hippocampal dynamic functional connectivity in PD. Thirty-one PD participants and 31 healthy controls (HC) underwent functional MRI during an ORM task. Co-activation pattern analysis identified active hippocampal networks. The PD group showed impaired ORM and a sequence of four activated hippocampal networks. The fourth network, involving the dorsal Attention Network (dAN), had fewer and shorter expressions during correct ORM responses in PD compared with HC. Hippocampal functional asymmetry was observed in HC but not in PD. These findings suggest that impaired ORM in PD is linked to reduced hippocampal functional asymmetry. Future research should explore differences in functional dynamics of odor memory-related brain regions in PD patients with and without cognitive decline.
