Advice to people with Parkinson's in my clinic: Get a cardiopulmonary exercise test.
Article in Journal of Parkinson's disease, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Aerobic (cardiopulmonary) exercise training improves fitness and limits the progression of motor signs in Parkinson's disease. Individualized development of exercise prescriptions relies upon accurately measured peak heart rate (HR). Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) is the only methodology to objectively confirm an individual's peak HR. This test is important in individuals who may have autonomic dysfunction, which may manifest as chronotropic incompetence. Without CPET's confirmation of maximal effort, there is no way of knowing whether exercise prescription in those with chronotropic incompetence is accurate. CPET also provides information regarding cardiorespiratory fitness, which can motivate patients to exercise to prolong health.
