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

X chromosome-wide association studies (XWAS) have successfully identified risk loci on the X chromosome associated with Parkinson's disease (PD) susceptibility. However, only three such studies have been completed to date. Here, we present the first XWAS using an African cohort, comprising 690 PD cases and 826 controls. We applied an established XWAS workflow to perform male- and female-stratified analyses, as well as a combined meta-analysis. The male-stratified analysis identified five significant variants, including one lead locus (rs200539602), while the female-stratified analysis revealed 29 significant variants and two lead loci (rs2499550 and rs58045540), where rs2499550 is an upstream variant of the protein-coding gene
