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

backgroundIdiopathic rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (iRBD) is a prodromal neurodegenerative disease of misfolded alpha-synuclein (P-SYN) with a high risk of phenoconversion to a clinically apparent synucleinopathy (including Parkinson's disease, multiple system atrophy, or dementia with Lewy bodies) over 15 years.

objectivesTo determine rates of cutaneous CLINICAL TRIAL PROTOCOL: In a prospective, blinded study we will recruit 80 individuals with polysomnography confirmed iRBD or probable RBD using standard diagnostic criteria. Skin biopsies with dual immunohistochemical immunostaining for nerve fibers (protein gene product 9.5) and DISCUSSION: Patients with iRBD are an important population to study due to the high rates of phenoconversion to clinically apparent synucleinopathy.
