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: Hippocampal subregion atrophy has been associated with cognitive decline in Parkinson's disease (PD). Our study aimed to investigate the functional and structural alterations of the hippocampal subregion in newly diagnosed PD patients presenting with different cognitive states and to explore potential associations between these neuroanatomical alterations and cognitive performance. Methods: A total of four participant groups were recruited, including a Results: Compared to the PD-NC, the PD-SCD group revealed a significantly decreased FC between the left middle hippocampus (HIPm) and right postcentral gyrus (PoCG. R). Patients in the PD-MCI group had a decreased FC value not only between HIPm and PoCG. R but also between the left anterior hippocampus (HIPa) and PoCG. R. The GM volume in HIPa of PD-NC patients was significantly higher than that of PD-MCI patients. Furthermore, partial correlation analysis indicated that the FC in HIPa-PoCG. R and HIPm-PoCG. R was positively associated with executive functions. The elevated GM volume in HIPa was associated with better visuospatial and language functions. Conclusion: Dysfunction of left HIPm may contribute to initial executive decline in PD. The different subregions of the long-axis hippocampus could be targeted for early intervention strategies in PD with different cognitive states in the future.
