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

Background: An increasing body of research has identified a correlation between dysbiosis of the intestinal microbiota and the onset and progression of Parkinson's disease. Furthermore, aerobic exercise has been shown to positively influence the regulation of intestinal microbiota. This study aims to examine the effects of aerobic exercise on the clinical symptoms of people with Parkinson's disease and the underlying mechanisms. Methods: Twenty-six participants engaged in 8 weeks moderate-intensity aerobic exercise. The outcomes include the World Movement Disorder Society Unified Parkinson's Disease Comprehensive Rating Scale part III and so on. Concurrently, fecal and blood samples were collected from the subjects. Results: After aerobic exercise, the MDS-UPDRS part III score decreased. There was a statistically significant increase in the relative abundance of Conclusion: Aerobic exercise has been shown to enhance both motor and non-motor functions in people with Parkinson's disease. The underlying mechanisms may involve the modulation of intestinal flora composition and diversity, bile acid metabolism, and inflammatory cytokine levels.
