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

Parkinson's disease (PD) involves progressive neurodegeneration and distinctive structural and functional alterations in cortico-basal ganglia circuits. This study proposes bridging the gap between structural and functional biomarkers to uncover fundamental mechanisms underlying PD pathophysiology and support more comprehensive diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. We examined 50 PD patients using high-resolution MRI to quantify cortical thickness, surface area, and volume in sensorimotor regions, alongside intraoperative neurophysiological recordings of spectral power, burst parameters, and coherence. Pairwise correlation and Sparse Partial Least Squares analyses revealed significant low-dimensional latent relationships, particularly linking cortical atrophy in Brodmann areas BA1-BA6 with alpha and low-beta burst abnormalities. These associations remained robust after controlling for age, disease duration, and symptom severity, and were absent in a control cohort with essential tremor. These findings highlight the value of multimodal approaches for uncovering structure-function interactions in PD and highlight the potential of integrated biomarkers for improving diagnosis and treatment strategies.
