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

Lewy body diseases, including Parkinson's disease and dementia with Lewy bodies, often involve mild cognitive impairment at diagnosis (mild cognitive impairment with Lewy bodies (MCI-LB). Language dysfunction in MCI-LB patients is often unrecognized. This study aimed to assess syntactic comprehension deficits in MCI-LB patients and to explore their neural correlates. A total of 25 MCI-LB patients (mean ± sd: 72 ± 5.6 years old, 10 women) and 25 healthy controls (HC, mean ± sd: 66 ± 4.0 years old, 12 women) performed task functional MRI Test of Sentence Comprehension (ToSC). Functional connectivity was analysed using psychophysiological interaction (PPI) method, focusing on the striatum and language networks. MCI-LB patients had lower ToSC scores than HC (MCI-LB: 74.7 ± 15.7, HC: 88.5 ± 9.0,
