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

Speech impairment is a common and disabling symptom of Parkinson's disease (PD). We aimed to reveal the motor, nonmotor, and other clinical factors that might be associated with voice disturbances in PD. Remarkably, we aimed to present a possible specific clinical phenotype more prone to display speech disturbances. We included all the patients with PD who visited our movement disorders clinic between March 2023 and March 2024 and whose information regarding the clinical features and scale results was fully available. In addition to detailed demographic data, comprehensive clinical assessments were performed. We included 232 PD patients with a mean age of 64.4 ± 10.5 y (F/M = 145/87). The median disease duration was 4 y. The comparative analyses of the patients with and without voice handicaps (VH) revealed that patients with VH had higher disease duration and LED. They got higher scores in all the clinical scales, including MDS-UPDRS 1, 2, 3, 4, FOGQ, FES-I, HAM-A, and HDRS revealing a more severe disease stage However, multiple linear regression models revealed only the MDS-UPDRS 4 score, HAM-A score, and MDS-UPDRS-3 (on) score [- 10,658 + 2297*MDS-UPDRS-4 + 0949*HAI + 0549*MDS-UPDRS-3 (on)] as predictors of VHI. Our results support increasing speech problems with higher motor stage, and motor complication score. Besides, we also draw attention to anxiety, which is associated with speech problems in the general community, but only in an experimental study of PD pathology.
