Effectiveness of a therapeutic program with chin tuck against resistance exercises compared to the chin-down maneuver in Parkinson's disease: a randomized controlled pilot trial.
Trial report in CoDAS, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purposeInvestigate the effectiveness of a therapeutic program with chin tuck against resistance (CTAR) exercises, compared to the chin-down (CD) maneuver, on signs suggestive of dysphagia, maximum isometric tongue pressure, and therapeutic efficacy in individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD).
methods26 individuals with primary PD were randomly assigned to two intervention groups for four weeks (one session per week). Group A performed the CTAR exercises (n = 13), and Group B performed the CD postural maneuver with swallowing training with different food consistencies (n = 13). The outcomes assessed were signs suggestive of dysphagia using the Northwestern Dysphagia Patient Check Sheet (NDPCS), maximum isometric tongue pressure (MIP), the Eating Assessment Tool (EAT-10) to monitor therapeutic efficacy, and peak cough flow, before and after the intervention period.
resultsThe CTAR group showed a significant improvement in items related to the NDPCS, MIP, and EAT-10 compared to the CD group (p < 0.05). There was no significant difference in peak cough flow in either group.
conclusionPD patients who underwent an intervention program with CTAR exercises showed an improvement in signs suggestive of dysphagia and an increase in maximum isometric tongue pressure, compared to those who underwent the therapeutic program with the CD postural maneuver.
