Epidemiology and clinical features of movement disorders in a Mexican Mestizo cohort: a 10-year tertiary-center study.

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
Background: Movement disorders comprise a heterogeneous spectrum of neurological conditions characterized by impaired motor control. Limited epidemiological data exist for Latin American populations, particularly for Mexican Mestizos. Objective: To characterize the epidemiological profile and clinical features of movement disorders in a large cohort of Mexican Mestizo patients evaluated at a public tertiary referral center in western Mexico. Methods: We conducted a 10-year retrospective cohort study (2012-2022) analyzing medical records from the Movement Disorders and Neurodegenerative Diseases Unit at the Hospital Civil de Guadalajara, a public tertiary university hospital from the western region of Mexico. Inclusion criteria were confirmed movement disorder diagnosis and a minimum of two clinical evaluations. Binary logistic regression was used to calculate odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Results: Among 1,830 records (mean age 58.5 ± 17.0 years, 53.9% female, all self-identified as Mexican Mestizo), hypokinetic disorders comprised 63.9% (n = 1,170) and hyperkinetic disorders 36.1% (n = 660). Parkinsonism (63.6%, n = 1,163) and tremor (11.3%, n = 206) were the most frequent subtypes. Hypokinetic disorders were associated with older age (64.2 ± 12.8 vs. 48.5 ± 18.9 years, Conclusion: This is the largest reported Mexican Mestizo cohort with movement disorders evaluated in a single public tertiary center. Findings reveal distinct demographic and clinical patterns and may inform integrated cardiovascular-neurological care models, screening protocols, and resource allocation within the Mexican public health system.
