Regional brain dysfunction patterns associated with rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder and visual hallucinations in Parkinson's disease: a resting-state fMRI study with exploratory ROI-based factorial analysis.

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: Rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD) and visual hallucinations (VH) are prognostically relevant non-motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD), but their combined effects on local brain dysfunction remain unclear. Objective: To characterize regional brain dysfunction patterns associated with RBD and VH in PD and to explore candidate-region symptom-related effects within regions showing overall between-group differences. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 96 patients with PD were divided into four groups according to the presence or absence of RBD and VH (24 per group). Resting-state functional MRI was analyzed using amplitude of low-frequency fluctuations (ALFF) and regional homogeneity (ReHo). Whole-brain four-group analyses were first used to identify regions with overall between-group differences, followed by exploratory ROI-based 2 × 2 factorial analyses within candidate regions. Additional whole-brain voxel-wise 2 × 2 factorial analyses were performed as supplementary analyses. Correlations between imaging indices and clinical scales were also examined. Results: Patients with both RBD and VH showed the greatest clinical burden and worse cognitive performance. Whole-brain analyses revealed abnormalities in frontal, temporal, cerebellar, supplementary motor, and precuneus regions. Exploratory candidate-region analyses with Benjamini-Hochberg FDR correction showed RBD-related patterns in precuneus ReHo, cerebellar lobule VIII ReHo, and SMA ALFF; VH-related patterns in OFC ReHo, precuneus ReHo, cerebellar Crus I ReHo, SMA ALFF, and temporal pole ALFF; and interaction-like patterns in OFC ReHo and temporal pole ALFF. These ROI-based findings were interpreted as Conclusion: Coexisting RBD and VH may identify a clinically more severe PD subtype associated with regional abnormalities involving cerebellar, motor, default mode, and association-related regions. Symptom-related main and interaction patterns should be interpreted as candidate-region exploratory findings requiring further confirmation in larger studies.
