Neuropsychological insights into creativity in people with Parkinson's disease.
Article in NPJ Parkinson's disease, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
Creativity, the capacity and motivation to produce novel and personally meaningful ideas or behaviors, can be influenced by Parkinson's disease (PD). Non-motor neuropsychological symptoms, such as apathy and negative schizotypy have been linked to reduced creativity, while dopaminergic treatments are associated with increased creative engagement. Building on epidemiological findings investigating changes in creativity, we examined possible drivers of increased and decreased creative activity. In a cross-sectional study, 360 participants with PD completed a questionnaire assessing self-reported creativity changes and associated factors, including personality (Big-Five, Multidimensional-Schizotypy-Scale), lifestyle (e.g., creative lifestyle, free time), and clinical (HY-scores, MoCA, dopaminergic treatments). Using machine learning (gradient-boosted decision-trees), we explained 23% of variance in creativity changes. Dopamine agonists, extraversion, free time, and a creative lifestyle since symptom onset predicted increased creativity, while disorganized schizotypy predicted decreases. The findings provide new insights for future research on creativity as part of PD's neuropsychological spectrum and for person-centered treatment.
