Barriers and facilitators to Parkinson's disease research participation amongst underrepresented groups.
Article in BMC research notes, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
objectiveEven though the growing prevalence of Parkinson's disease (PD) is inclusive of ethnic and racial minority groups, these populations remain underrepresented in PD clinical research. This community-based study seeks to add to the limited knowledge on barriers and facilitators to underrepresented group (URG) enrollment in PD trials by assessing minority community members' PD and research knowledge, trust in medical researchers, and likelihood to participate in research based on various study design factors.
resultsOf the 97 total workshop participants, 80 completed demographic information, with the majority female (71%) and from minority racial groups -- African American/Black (37.5%) and East/Southeast Asian (45%). Levels of trust in medical researchers were generally high and improved post-workshop. Most respondents were likely to participate in trials requiring DNA or cognitive testing, and unlikely if requiring intravenous infusion or lumbar puncture. Facilitators to trial participation included offering transportation and financial incentives, while longer study visits and study duration were barriers.
