A review of the evidence for a protective role of uric acid in Parkinson's disease.
Review 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 2 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
The relationship between the circulating antioxidant uric acid (UA) and Parkinson's disease (PD) has attracted much interest. This review of the evidence indicating whether UA may have a protective role in the development and/or progression of PD draws on the findings of reduced serum UA in PD, critically assesses the more equivocal genetic results, and discusses experimental observations that UA may provide protection against the pathogenic mechanisms of PD.
