Poor sleep quality correlates with axial symptoms and mood problems in Parkinson's disease.

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
introductionSleep disturbances and impaired bed mobility are common in Parkinson's disease (PD). We examined whether objectively measured sleep efficiency is associated with axial motor impairment and explored its potential relationship with cognitive and mood profiles.
methodsTwenty-eight patients with PD underwent single-night EEG-based sleep monitoring and assessment of nocturnal turning. Partial correlations between sleep metrics and scores on motor, cognitive and mood outcomes were analysed, controlling for age, sex and the MDS-UPDRS 3. Family-wise error (FWE) correction was applied within each sleep predictor.
resultsPoor sleep efficiency correlated with higher MDS-UPDRS axial subscore (
conclusionPoor objective sleep quality was robustly associated with axial motor severity in PD, independent of overall motor burden. Sleep efficiency may represent a clinically accessible marker of shared brainstem-related pathology underlying axial dysfunction.
