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

backgroundGBA mutations are a common risk factor for Parkinson's disease (PD). A recent study has suggested that GBA haplotypes, identified by intronic variants, can affect age at diagnosis of PD.

objectivesIn this study, we assess this hypothesis using long reads across a large cohort and the publicly available Accelerating Medicines Partnership-Parkinson's Disease (AMP-PD) cohort.

methodsWe recruited a PD cohort through the Remote Assessment of Parkinsonism Supporting Ongoing Development of Interventions in Gaucher Disease study (RAPSODI) and sequenced GBA using Oxford Nanopore technology. Genetic and clinical data on the full AMP-PD cohort were obtained from the online portal of the consortium.

resultsA total of 1417 participants were analyzed. There was no significant difference in age at PD diagnosis between the two main haplotypes of the GBA gene.

conclusionsGBA haplotypes do not affect age at diagnosis of PD in the two independent cohorts studied. © 2021 The Authors. Movement Disorders published by Wiley Periodicals LLC on behalf of International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society.
