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

backgroundImpulsive-compulsive behavior disorders (ICBDs) in Parkinson's disease (PD) include impulse control disorders (ICDs) and compulsive behaviors, often linked to dopaminergic treatment and altered reward processing. Interoception, the perception of internal bodily signals, plays a key role in emotional regulation and decision-making. Neuroimaging studies suggest that alterations in interoceptive and reward-related brain circuits may underlie ICDs in PD. However, the relationship between interoception and ICDs remains underexplored.

objectiveTo investigate the relationship between impulse control disorders (ICD) severity and interoceptive abilities-specifically interoceptive accuracy, insight, and self-reported interoception-in PD patients.

methodsFifty-one participants were assessed using the Questionnaire for Impulsive-Compulsive Disorders in Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (QUIP-RS) alongside measures of interoceptive performance, anxiety, depression, and apathy.

resultsHigher ICD severity predicted increased interoceptive insight and sensibility. No significant link was found between ICD severity and interoceptive accuracy. Additionally, higher Levodopa Equivalent Daily Dose (LEDD) was related to lower interoceptive insight, suggesting a potential modulatory effect of dopaminergic therapy on meta-cognitive interoception.

conclusionsThese findings highlight the complex interplay between ICDs and interoception, suggesting that heightened self-reported interoception and interoceptive insight may reinforce impulsive behaviors in PD via enhanced bodily signal salience. This study contributes to understanding the characteristics of ICDs in PD, implicating reward-related circuits such as the insula and anterior cingulate cortex.
