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

<p>Introduction: Memory impairment in Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized mainly by impaired recall with preserved recognition. Despite its clinical importance, there are only a limited number of simple bedside memory tests that can assess both recall and recognition memory together, and that can also be used to detect the neuroanatomical changes in PD. To address this issue, we examined whether a simple memory test that can evaluate both recall and recognition memory can detect cortical abnormalities related to memory impairment in PD.

methodsWe designed a composite recall and recognition memory score using the Mini-Mental Statement Examination to reflect recall and recognition memory. We assessed memory impairment in 210 patients with PD using this test and investigated the neuroanatomical correlations with the test results.

resultsThis simple memory test showed that recognition memory was generally preserved in PD, and furthermore, the test results were significantly correlated with atrophy of the limbic and frontal cortices.

conclusionsAdding recognition evaluation to a simple memory test can detect abnormalities in memory-related brain regions in PD. </p>.
