Isolated REM Sleep Behaviour Disorder-Is Screening Possible?
Review in Journal of sleep research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behaviour disorder (RBD) is a parasomnia characterised by the loss of muscle atonia during REM sleep and dream-enacting behaviours. In its isolated form (iRBD) it is widely recognised as an early stage of alpha-synucleinopathies. Early identification of patients with iRBD allows for timely interventions, risk mitigation and potential inclusion in clinical trials aimed at disease modification. Effective screening tools, including questionnaires, automatic analyses of video-polysomnography, actigraphy, nearables and biological markers, can facilitate diagnosis and monitoring. Incorporating routine screening into clinical practice may enhance early detection and improve long-term patient outcomes. This manuscript presents the latest developments in screening tools for the identification of patients with iRBD and discusses their advantages and drawbacks, highlighting paths for future research and applications.
