GWAS Identifies DPP6 as Risk Gene of Cognitive Decline in Parkinson's Disease.
Article in The journals of gerontology. Series A, Biological sciences and medical sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundCognitive decline is among the most common non-motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD), while its physiological mechanisms remain poorly understood. Genetic factors constituted a fundamental determinant in the heterogeneity of cognitive decline among PD patients. However, the underlying genetic background was still less studied.
methodsTo explore the genetic determinants contributing to cognitive decline in PD, we performed genome-wide survival analysis using a Cox proportional hazards model in a longitudinal cohort of 450 Chinese patients with PD, and further explored the functional effect of the target variant. Additionally, we built a clinical-genetic model by incorporating clinical characteristics and polygenic risk score (PRS) to predict cognitive decline in PD.
resultsThe cohort was followed up for an average of 5.25 (SE = 2.46) years, with 95 incidents of cognitive impairment. We identified significant association between locus rs75819919 (DPP6) and accelerated cognitive decline (p = 8.63E-09, beta = 1.74, SE = 0.30). Dual-luciferase reporter assay suggested this locus might be involved in the regulation of DPP6 expression. Using data set from the UK Biobank, we identified rs75819919 was associated with cognitive performance in the general population. Incorporation of PRS increased the model's predictability, achieving an average AUC of 75.6% through fivefold cross-validation in 1 000 iterations.
conclusionsThese findings improve the current understanding of the genetic etiology of cognitive impairment in PD, and provide a novel target DPP6 to explore therapeutic options. Our results also demonstrate the potential to develop clinical-genetic model to identify patients susceptible to cognitive impairment and thus provide personalized clinical guidance.
