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

backgroundIsolated rapid-eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder (iRBD) is characterized by abnormal behaviors in REM sleep and is considered as a prodromal symptom of alpha-synucleinopathies. Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rsfMRI) studies have unveiled altered functional connectivity (rsFC) in patients with iRBD. However, the associations between intra- and inter-network rsFC with clinical symptoms and neuropsychological functioning in iRBD remain unclear.

objectiveTo characterize intra- and inter-network rsFC in iRBD patients using a data-driven approach and to assess its associations with clinical features and cognitive functioning.

methodsForty-two patients with iRBD and 45 healthy controls (HC) underwent rsfMRI and comprehensive neuropsychological testing. Resting-state networks were characterized using independent component analyses. Group differences in intra- and inter-network rsFC and their associations with clinical and neuropsychological data were studied. A threshold of corrected P < 0.05 was used in all the analyses.

resultsiRBD patients displayed lower intra-network rsFC within basal ganglia, visual, sensorimotor, and cerebellar networks, relative to HC. Mean rsFC strength within the basal ganglia network positively correlated with processing speed and negatively with the non-motor symptoms in iRBD patients. Reduced inter-network rsFC between sensorimotor and visual medial networks was observed in iRBD patients, which was associated with global cognitive status.

conclusionsiRBD is characterized by both reductions in intra-network rsFC in cortical and subcortical networks and inter-network dysconnectivity between sensorimotor and visual networks. Abnormalities in intra- and inter-network rsFC are associated with cognitive performance and non-motor symptoms, suggesting the utility of both rsFC measures as imaging markers in prodromal alpha-synucleinopathies. © 2025 The Author(s).
