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: Striatal dopaminergic dysfunction and hippocampal degeneration contribute to cognitive impairment in Parkinson's disease (PD). However, their interaction in PD-related cognitive decline remains unclear. Objective: We aimed to investigate whether asymmetry of striatal dopaminergic integrity and hippocampal subfield volume are associated with cognitive performance in PD, and whether their statistical interaction provides additional explanatory value. Methods: A cohort of 53 participants from the Parkinson's Progression Markers Initiative (PPMI) was analyzed, including 33 PD with mild cognitive impairment (PD-MCI) patients and 20 PD with normal cognition (PD-NC) patients. All patients had complete 18F-AV-133 vesicular monoamine transporter 2 PET and 3D-T1w imaging. Asymmetry indices (AI) were calculated for striatal 18F-AV-133 standard uptake volume ratio (SUVR) and hippocampal subfield volumes. Results: PD-MCI showed higher AI in caudate and anterior putamen uptake versus PD-NC. Hippocampal CA2/3 and granule cell layer AI correlated with MoCA. Caudate and anterior putamen uptake AI linked to multiple cognitive domains. Regression analysis revealed interactions between anterior putamen SUVR AI and CA2/3 AI on MoCA in PD (p = 0.039), and posterior putamen SUVR AI with CA2/3 AI on MoCA in PD-MCI (p = 0.002). Conclusion: Striatal dopaminergic asymmetry and hippocampal subfield asymmetry are both associated with cognitive impairment in PD. In exploratory regression models, the association between CA2/3 asymmetry and global cognition varied according to the degree of striatal dopaminergic asymmetry. These findings clarified the relationship between hippocampus and dopaminergic pathways in PD with cognitive decline, and deepen understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms of cognitive impairment.
