A diagnostic model for Parkinson's disease based on circadian rhythm-related genes.
Article in Journal of translational medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
backgroundCircadian rhythm (CR) disturbance is intricately associated with Parkinson's disease (PD). However, the involvement of CR-related mechanisms in the pathogenesis and progression of PD remains elusive.
methodsA total of 141 PD patients and 113 healthy participants completed CR-related clinical examinations in this study. To further investigate the CR-related mechanisms in PD, we obtained datasets (GSE7621, GSE20141, GSE20292) from the Gene Expression Omnibus database to identify differentially expressed genes between PD patients and healthy controls and further selected CR-related genes (CRRGs). Subsequently, the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) followed by logistic algorithms were employed to identify the hub genes and construct a diagnostic model. The predictive performance was evaluated by area under the curve (AUC), calibration curve, and decision curve analyses in the training set and external validation sets. Finally, RT‒qPCR and Western blotting were conducted to verify the expression of these hub genes in blood samples. In addition, Pearson correlation analysis was utilized to validate the association between expression of hub genes and circadian rhythm function.
resultsOur clinical observational study revealed that even early-stage PD patients exhibited a higher likelihood of experiencing sleep disturbances, nocturnal hypertension, reverse-dipper blood pressure, and reduced heart rate variability compared to healthy controls. Furthermore, 4 CR-related hub genes (AGTR1, CALR, BRM14, and XPA) were identified and subsequently incorporated as candidate biomarkers to construct a diagnostic model. The model showed satisfactory diagnostic performance in the training set (AUC = 0.941), an external validation set GSE20295 (AUC = 0.842), and our clinical centre set (AUC = 0.805). Additionally, the up-regulation of CALR, BRM14 and the down-regulation of AGTR1, XPA were associated with circadian rhythm disruption.
conclusionCR disturbance seems to occur in the early stage of PD. The diagnostic model based on CR-related genes demonstrated robust diagnostic efficacy, offering novel insights for future clinical diagnosis of PD and providing a foundation for further exploration into the role of CR-related mechanisms in the progression of PD.
