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

Psychosis in Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common and debilitating non-motor symptom that can occur at any stage of the disease. PD psychosis (PDP) manifests as a diverse clinical spectrum that can include misperceptions, passage and presence phenomena, hallucinations, and delusions, alone or in combination. This review explores the epidemiology and underlying neurobiological mechanisms of psychosis in PD, describes the symptom spectrum experienced by patients, and reviews the evidence supporting current and future therapies for psychosis in PD. Pimavanserin and clozapine are the only pharmacologic therapies for PDP that have been found to be efficacious in randomized controlled trials, though quetiapine is most frequently used despite lacking positive trial results. Future research that continues to clarify the exact pathophysiology of psychosis in PD will improve the current therapeutic approaches, and ongoing randomized clinical trials of these therapies are necessary to identify the safest and most efficacious treatments for PD patients with psychosis.
