Mental health disparities and the role of perceived discrimination among Latinx individuals living with Parkinson's disease.
Article in Parkinsonism & related disorders, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
introductionParkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder with motor and non-motor symptoms including depression and cognitive impairment. There is underrepresentation of Latinxs in PD research as most of the research consists of non-Latinx white participants. The current study investigates longitudinal differences in health disparities among Latinx and White non-Latinx individuals living with PD. As a second aim, we examined the associations between perceived discrimination in healthcare and outcomes from aim 1.
methodsThe present study consisted of 25,298 individuals with PD who enrolled in the Fox Insight (FI) online study. Participants were followed annually for up to 3 years. Participants completed measures of depressive symptoms, health-related quality of life (HRQOL), cognitive complaints, subjective motor symptom severity, self-reported income, and perceived discrimination in healthcare. Multilevel models examined the longitudinal differences in non-motor and motor outcomes among Latinx (n = 1161) and White non-Latinx individuals (n = 24,137).
resultsLatinx participants reported significantly more depressive symptoms and worse HRQOL than non-Latinx individuals. No significant differences were found in cognitive complaints, or motor severity between Latinx and non-Latinx participants. The main effect of perceived discrimination was associated with both depressive symptoms and HRQOL.
conclusionsThe current study provides initial evidence of mental health discrepancies among Latinx individuals living with PD and White non-Latinx counterparts. The combination of underrepresentation in research and possible health disparities among Latinx communities may affect the quality of clinical trials/studies and patient care.
