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: Source-space electroencephalography (EEG) provides a noninvasive approach for probing oscillatory activity in motor-cortical and cerebellar networks in Parkinson's disease (PD). However, electrophysiological evidence differentiating tremor-dominant (TD) and postural instability/gait difficulty (PIGD) subtypes under a harmonized medication OFF/ON protocol remains limited. We therefore examined whether TD and PIGD differ in medication-state modulation of motor-cortical low-beta power and cerebellum-related connectivity using 64-channel resting-state source-space EEG. Methods: We prospectively enrolled 12 healthy controls, 20 patients with PIGD, and 18 with TD. In a fixed OFF-to-ON sequence, participants underwent 64-channel eyes-closed resting-state EEG. Source-space power spectral density (PSD) and weighted phase lag index (wPLI) were computed for prespecified motor-cortical and cerebellar regions of interest. Primary effects were tested with linear mixed-effects models. Exploratory edge-wise analyses were controlled using the Benjamini-Hochberg false discovery rate (BH-FDR), and network-level effects were assessed with network-based statistics (NBS). Results: For the prespecified primary PSD endpoint, low-beta relative PSD in the primary motor cortex (M1) showed a significant group × state interaction (χ Conclusion: Tremor-dominant and PIGD showed distinct medication-state modulation of motor-cortical low-beta power, with M1 low-beta relative PSD emerging as the most consistent electrophysiological difference in this cohort. By contrast, cerebellum-related connectivity findings were limited to exploratory edge-wise effects and require independent replication.
