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

A strong increase in the prevalence and deaths of Parkinson's disease (PD) has been reported over the last three decades. Ageing societies, genetic and environmental factors and access to health care contribute to these increases. Using data of the German National Cohort (NAKO) PD classifications based on self-report, claims data and a brief medication based algorithm to increase validity in the absence of neurologic examinations, were compared and the PD incidence, selected non-motor symptoms, functions and vital status were analysed. The algorithm based PD prevalence among 205.000 participants was 0.13% but it was 2.5-fold higher in claims data. Self-reported PD incidence was 0.13% over a median of 4.8 years follow-up, but cases had a 4-fold higher mortality, worse emotional, motoric and olfactory functions and higher prevalences of diabetes, obesity, depression and anxiety. The algorithm based PD prevalence and the mortality risk was similar to considerable older population studies from Europe.
