1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Background: Black or African Americans (AA) with Parkinson's disease (PD) are underrepresented in both care and research and experience significant health disparities. The existing literature provides limited guidance on how to enhance the engagement of AA individuals in PD care and research, particularly from the perspectives of AA patients, care partners, and healthcare providers. This project aimed to (1) describe the use of Community Engagement (CE) Studios as a community-engaged research approach to inform culturally appropriate and inclusive research and (2) examine factors influencing AA engagement in PD-related activities. Methods: We conducted three CE Studios: one with AA with PD and care partners ( Results: The CE Studios informed the design (e.g., cultural appropriateness) and conduct (e.g., accessibility) of the planned PD project, as well as identifying stakeholders to engage with, improving alignment between research and the AA community. We highlighted the importance of multifaceted factors, including environmental (e.g., segregation), biological (e.g., symptoms), sociocultural (e.g., not being invited), and behavioral (e.g., empowerment) domains, which influence AA engagement. Conclusions: The CE Studios method is a feasible and useful approach for understanding the perspectives of AA in PD. It is possible to conduct an in-depth exploration of community perspectives by synthesizing comprehensive analyses and leveraging additional frameworks. These efforts include identifying barriers to engagement, recognizing locally relevant individuals, and refining PD-related care to enhance cultural appropriateness.
