Current Perspectives on Olfactory Loss in Atypical Parkinsonisms-A Review Article.
Review in Biomedicines, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
introductionAtypical parkinsonisms (APs) present various symptoms including motor impairment, cognitive decline, and autonomic dysfunction. Olfactory loss (OL), being a significant non-motor symptom, has emerged as an under-evaluated, yet potentially valuable, feature that might aid in the differential diagnosis of APs. STATE OF THE ART: The most pronounced OL is usually associated with Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB). While the view about the normosmic course of Multiple System Atrophy (MSA) remains unchanged, research indicates that mild OL may occur in a subset of patients with Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) and Corticobasal Degeneration (CBD). This might be linked to the deposition of abnormal protein aggregates in the central nervous system. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: The aim of this review is to discuss the role of OL and its degree and pattern in the pathogenesis and course of APs. Olfactory testing could serve as a non-invasive, quick screening tool to differentiate between APs and project disease progression. FUTURE DIRECTIONS: There is a need for further evaluation of this topic. This may lead to the development of standardized olfactory testing protocols that could be implemented in clinical practice, making differential diagnosis of APs more convenient. Understanding differences in the sense of smell could create an avenue for more targeted therapeutic strategies.
