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

purposeThe purpose of this study was to investigate acoustic and auditory-perceptual voice outcomes of clear speech cueing in individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD).

methodSpeakers with PD completed speaking tasks (a spontaneous speech sample and a standard reading passage) in two speaking conditions: typical and clear speech. Acoustic measures of vocal intensity, fundamental frequency (f

resultsIntensity significantly increased in the clear speech condition compared with typical speech. When controlling for intensity, f

conclusionsTargeting the articulatory subsystem with clear speech cueing in PD elicits acoustic and auditory-perceptual changes that align with a louder voice, increased intonational variation, and reduced breathiness. Voice changes with clear speech are not fully explained by concomitant increases in intensity.
