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

This study aims to address whether a new visual-motor-based learning paradigm with music can potentially promote neuroplasticity and create new interventional tools, building upon prior research that shows behavioral and putative neural changes following dance-based neurorehabilitation in people with Parkinson's disease (PD). Eye movements of 10 healthy adult participants, aged 20-25, were tracked using the Eyelink 1000 Plus system during a 68 s eye dance sequence. The experiment consisted of a learning phase, where participants observed the sequence five times with 30 s breaks, and a performance phase, where they performed the sequence five times from memory on a gray screen without visual cues. Results showed a significant improvement in percentage of total movements performed correctly between the first session (g1; M = 40%, SD = 7.2%) and the last session (g5; M = 69.7%, SD = 22.8%). Similarly, there was significant improvement in the average time on beat from the intended choreography timing, between the first session (g1; M = 0.29, SD = 0.06) and the fifth session (g5; M = 0.46, SD = 0.12). These findings suggest that eye movement choreography has the potential to be learned within healthy adults.
