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

backgroundParkinson's disease (PD) most commonly surfaces at middle age. An earlier onset is named early-onset Parkinson's disease (EOPD), but the exact definition is a matter of ongoing scientific debate.

objectiveTo investigate 40-year EOPD incidence trends in a population-based cohort of parkinsonism in Olmsted County, Minnesota.

methodsWe used the Rochester Epidemiology Project (REP) to identify all incident EOPD cases in Olmsted County, 1976-2015. A movement-disorder specialist reviewed all cases to confirm the EOPD diagnosis. For EOPD definition, we used two age cut-offs: motor-symptom onset at or before 50 and 55 years.

resultsEOPD incidence was 1.43/100,000 person-years for ≤55 and 0.55/100,000 for ≤50 years. Men had a higher incidence in both groups [1.84 vs. 1.03 (p = 0.04); and 0.70 vs. 0.40 (p = 0.24), respectively]. EOPD incidence of patients with motor-symptom onset before age 55 increased from 1.02/100.000 person-year 1976-1985, to 1.32/100.000 person-year 2006-2015. A similar trend was observed when ≤50 years cut-off was used (0.28/100,000 person-years 1976-1985, to 0.59/100,000 person-year 2006-2015). However, negative binomial regression found no significant change in incidence per 10 years (RR = 1.04 and 1.24 in the two groups). Incidence was consistently higher in men than women. Median time from EOPD-symptom onset to death was shorter in the EOPD ≤55 group (21.9 years) compared to the EOPD ≤50 group (25.6 years).

conclusionWe observed an increased trend in the incidence of EOPD with both cut-off ages. Overall, incidence of EOPD was 1.43 (≤55) and 0.55 (≤50) cases per 100,000 person-years, higher in men.
