The barriers to receiving health care for people with Parkinson's from predominantly Asian backgrounds in the UK.
Article in NPJ Parkinson's disease, 2025. 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
Despite universal access to healthcare to eligible people of all ethnic backgrounds in the NHS, disparity in healthcare provision exists. Parkinson's disease (PD) is a chronic, progressive disorder with an insidious onset and increasing healthcare needs over time. However, there is little information on the experience of healthcare and barriers to access in people from minority ethnic (ME) backgrounds in the UK. Interviews were conducted with 21 People with Parkinson's (PwP) (38% female, mean age 54 (SD 10.67 years) from ME groups. Results were analysed using Braun and Clarke's thematic analysis. Four main themes were extracted: Awareness and Acceptance of Symptoms in the ME Community; Socio-cultural Expectations and Impacts; Access to Information on Parkinson's and Services; and Experiences of Healthcare. ME-PwP experience challenges in accessing healthcare, even in a universal healthcare system. Recognising these complex barriers may improve access and quality of life.
