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

Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder (RBD) is a parasomnia characterized by loss of muscle atonia and abnormal behaviors occurring during REM sleep. Idiopathic RBD (iRBD) is recognized as the strongest prodromal hallmark of α-synucleinopathies, with an established conversion rate to a neurodegenerative condition that reaches up to 96.6% at 15 years of follow-up. Moreover, RBD-converters display a more severe clinical trajectory compared to those that do not present with RBD. However, the extent to which iRBD represents a distinct genetic entity or an early manifestation of neurodegeneration remains unclear. To address this, we applied Genomic Structural Equation Modeling (GenomicSEM) using a GWAS-by-subtraction approach to disentangle the genetic architecture of iRBD from the shared genomic liability across α-synucleinopathies. Our findings highlight the
