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

Cognitive impairment varies across sporadic Parkinson's disease (PD) and the common genetic subtypes glucocerebrosidase (GBA1) and leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) PD and is influenced by Apolipoprotein E (APOE) polymorphisms and Alzheimer's disease (AD) co-pathology. However, the effects of APOE genotype, Aβ42 and tau on cognitive decline across these PD subtypes remain unclear. Using pooled longitudinal data across the PPMI and CPP cohorts, we examined the effects of APOE genotype and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) Aβ42 and tau on cognitive decline across sporadic PD, GBA1-PD, LRRK2-PD, and healthy control (HC) subjects. Whereas in sporadic PD the APOE ε4 allele was associated with faster cognitive decline than APOE ε3 or ε2 alleles, no APOE effect was observed in GBA1-PD or LRRK2-PD. While lower baseline CSF Aβ42 was linked to faster cognitive decline in all groups, higher baseline CSF pTau was associated with faster decline in sporadic PD and LRRK2-PD but not in GBA1-PD. These findings underscore differential vulnerabilities to APOE genotype and AD-related biomarkers among PD subtypes, a critical consideration for clinical trials targeting cognitive decline in PD.
