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

backgroundParkinson's disease (PD) is a prevalent neurodegenerative condition, the effect of obesity on PD remains controversial. We aimed to investigate the associations of obesity patterns on PD and all-cause mortality, while developing machine learning (ML)-driven predictive and prognostic models for PD.

methodsFifty-one thousand, three hundred ninety-four adults from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 1999-2018 were classified into four obesity patterns via body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC). Associations of obesity patterns with PD risk and all-cause mortality were evaluated via multivariable logistic and Cox proportional hazards regression across three adjusted models. Subgroup, sensitivity, and restricted cubic spline (RCS) analyses examined stability, robustness, and nonlinearity. An integrative ML-driven architecture identified key features to develop predictive and prognostic nomograms, validated by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AUCROCs) and calibration curves. Survival differences were analyzed using Kaplan-Meier curves. Shapley additive explanations (SHAP) enhanced model explanation.

resultsCompound obesity significantly increased PD risk (Model 1: OR = 1.83, P < 0.001; Model 2: OR = 1.70, P = 0.002; Model 3: OR = 1.71, P = 0.006) yet correlated with reduced all-cause mortality in PD patients (Model 1: HR = 0.43, P = 0.003; Model 2: HR = 0.75, P = 0.428; Model 3: HR = 0.41, P = 0.033). Subgroup analysis revealed only HbA1c-modified association of compound obesity with PD (P

conclusionsThis study preliminarily reveals that compound obesity significantly increases PD risk yet paradoxically associates with reduced all-cause mortality in PD patients. Validated predictive and prognostic nomograms for PD achieve relatively robust performances. Nonetheless, extensive longitudinal studies are required to validate these exploratory findings more comprehensively.
