Orthostatic hypotension and acute cognitive dysfunction in Parkinson's disease: insights from functional near-infrared spectroscopy.
Article in Clinical neurophysiology : official journal of the International Federation of Clinical Neurophysiology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveTo examine short-term associations among position-dependent executive performance and cerebral hemodynamic changes using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) in participants with Parkinson's disease (PD) with and without orthostatic hypotension (OH).
methodsTwenty-nine nondemented participants with PD (19 without OH (OH-), 10 with OH (OH+)) completed a verbal fluency test (VFT) in supine and upright positions on a tilt table, while their cerebral oxygenation was continuously monitored using a full-head fNIRS system. Age-adjusted ANCOVA examined the interaction effects of OH status and position on VFT scores, while linear mixed-effects models assessed changes in oxygenated (HbO) and deoxygenated hemoglobin (HbR) within the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC).
resultsA significant interaction between OH status and position emerged for letter fluency (p = 0.043, η
conclusionsDespite lack of OH symptomatology, PD OH+ individuals demonstrated impaired cerebral hemodynamic regulation when upright, which was associated with poorer cognitive performance. SIGNIFICANCE: fNIRS-derived measures for monitoring cerebral hemodynamics in patients with autonomic failure may provide a clinically relevant indicator of postural changes in brain dysfunction.
