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

backgroundSeveral lysosomal genes are associated with Parkinson's disease (PD), yet the association between PD and ARSA remains unclear.

objectivesTo study rare ARSA variants in PD.

methodsTo study rare ARSA variants (minor allele frequency < 0.01) in PD, we performed burden analyses in six independent cohorts with 5801 PD patients and 20,475 controls, followed by a meta-analysis.

resultsWe found evidence for associations between functional ARSA variants and PD in four cohorts (P ≤ 0.05 in each) and in the meta-analysis (P = 0.042). We also found an association between loss-of-function variants and PD in the United Kingdom Biobank cohort (P = 0.005) and in the meta-analysis (P = 0.049). These results should be interpreted with caution as no association survived multiple comparisons correction. Additionally, we describe two families with potential co-segregation of ARSA p.E382K and PD.

conclusionsRare functional and loss-of-function ARSA variants may be associated with PD. Further replications in large case-control/familial cohorts are required. © 2023 The Authors.
