Integrating tele-palliative care for atypical Parkinsonian disorders: Lessons learned from a pilot program.
Article in Clinical parkinsonism & related disorders, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Introduction: As evidence supporting palliative care (PC) via tele-medicine for neurologic patients increases, it is important to determine the best integration methods across various healthcare settings and patient populations to optimize outcomes. Given the rising demand for PC in chronic neurodegenerative diseases like Atypical Parkinsonian Disorders (APDs), it is imperative to explore different models of PC delivery for feasibility and effectiveness. Methods: Participants with APDs and their care partners at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) and Johns Hopkins University (JHU) received 2 virtual telemedicine PC sessions (at baseline and 6 months). Adherence and feasibility-related outcomes were assessed using a satisfaction survey developed by the investigators, using a five-point Likert scale, administered at baseline and 6 months. Additionally, participants' quality of life (QoL), mood, functional abilities, and care partner burden were assessed at baseline and 6-month follow-up virtual visits. Results: There was a 100 % attendance rate among participants and their care partners at both sites. Satisfaction levels regarding visit convenience were > 78 % for both visits at UCSF and reached 100 % at JHU. No significant differences were observed between baseline and 6-month assessments at both sites in QoL, mood, or caregiver burden. However, there was a significant decrease in functional abilities during the second visit (6 months) at JHU. Conclusion: These results support the integration and expansion of telemedicine PC services to address the evolving needs of individuals with APDs and their care partners, offering a viable solution to enhance access to PC in diverse healthcare settings.
