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

Introduction: Nutrition plays an influential role in Parkinson's disease. This study aims to assess nutritional obstacles, foods that impact symptoms, dietary guidelines, and consumption of dairy and organic foods in those with Parkinson's disease. Study design: We performed a multi-site qualitative study evaluating people's nutritional habits with Parkinson's disease. Methods: Five focus groups were conducted in the United States ( Results: Participants reported some foods that improve symptoms or make them worse. They discussed challenges to cooking and eating. They also reported that physicians provide them with limited information regarding nutrition and diet. There is a disparity between rural and urban people with Parkinson's concerning the consumption of organic food. Conclusions: People with Parkinson's desire more nutritional information. It empowers them to feel more in control of their disease. More research should be conducted on the effects of nutritional intake and behaviors on Parkinson's disease symptomatology.
