Social factors related to participation among people with Parkinson's disease.
Article in Disability and rehabilitation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
purposeParkinson's disease (PD) significantly impacts participation in daily activities, affecting the quality of life of individuals living with PD. While impairment-level factors have been extensively studied, the influence of social factors on participation remains less explored. This study investigated the contribution of social factors, including social resources and social isolation, to participation in instrumental, leisure, and social activities among people with PD.
methodsThis was a cross-sectional study of 86 community-dwelling adults with PD (Age: 65.02 ± 9.63yrs). Pearson correlation analysis was used to identify the relationships of impairment-level and social factors with participation. Hierarchical multiple regression analyses were conducted to examine the association between social factors and participation after controlling for impairment-level factors (i.e., motor dysfunction, depression, cognition).
resultsLess social isolation and more informal or interpersonal support (i.e., family/friend, neighborhood/community) correlated with better retention of participation across activity domains. Increased social support from family and friends contributed to increased high-demand leisure participation, while support from neighborhood, and community resources were independent predictors of retention of social and overall participation.
conclusionsThese findings underscore the importance of social factors and the impact of relationships and interactions within more proximal social environments on activity participation among individuals with PD. Incorporating strategies to enhance social resources into rehabilitation may improve participation in this population.
