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

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder whose aetiology involves an intricate interplay of genetic, immune, metabolic and environmental factors. Endocrine dysfunction-particularly disturbances of thyroid hormone signalling-has been proposed as a contributor to neurodegeneration, but conventional observational studies have produced inconsistent results, and prior Mendelian randomization (MR) work has largely focused on continuous thyroid biomarkers rather than clinically defined hyperthyroid disease states. To clarify this relationship, we performed a two-sample bidirectional and multivariable MR (MVMR) analysis using large-scale genome-wide association study (GWAS) summary statistics from the FinnGen and IEU Open GWAS databases (European ancestry). Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) reaching genome-wide significance (p < 5 × 10
