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

Despite the sound epidemiologic and basic science rationales underpinning numerous "disease modification" trials in manifest Parkinson disease (PD), none has convincingly demonstrated that a treatment slows progression. Rapidly expanding knowledge of the genetic determinants and prodromal features of PD now allows realistic planning of prevention trials with initiation of putatively neuroprotective therapies earlier in the disease. In this article, we outline the principles of drug selection for PD prevention trials, focused on proof-of-concept opportunities that will help establish a methodological foundation for this fledgling field. We describe prototypical, relatively low-risk drug candidates for such trials (e.g., albuterol, ambroxol, caffeine, ibuprofen), tailored to specific at-risk populations ranging from pathogenic
