Coproduction of an occupation-based complex intervention for living well with anxiety and Parkinson's (OBtAIN-PD) using online logic modelling in the UK.
Article in BMJ open, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundAnxiety is a common non-motor symptom of Parkinson's disease (PD). There is no specific pharmacological intervention for people with PD who experience anxiety. Current non-pharmacological treatments have mixed or inconclusive results and there does not appear to be a non-pharmacological intervention for people with PD disease and anxiety that focuses on activity and participation.
objectiveTo co-produce an occupation-focused complex intervention to help people with PD live well with anxiety that community-based occupational therapists can deliver.
designSix-stage complex intervention development was conducted using online logic modelling and a participatory approach to organise the new intervention's key inputs, processes and outcomes important to people with PD living with anxiety.
settingData were collected via online logic modelling sessions involving people with Parkinson's, care partners and occupational therapists across the UK from April 2022 to June 2022.
participants34 participants were recruited (people with PD n=14, care partners n=9, occupational therapists n=11) for the online logic modelling sessions.
resultsResources to support the new intervention ('inputs') include adequate resourcing, education for professionals and people with PD, flexibility of delivery methods and goal setting. The intervention's actions to produce outcomes ('processes') should include 1:1 support, lifestyle management, providing meaningful information, collaborative goal setting, therapeutic use of everyday activities, and involvement of friends and families. The intended results ('outcomes') should include a reduction in anxiety symptoms, people with PD enjoying more meaningful activities, increased understanding of anxiety and PD, improvement in clinical outcomes and improvement of service-level outcomes. These key aspects were incorporated into an intervention manual, educational material and training video.
conclusionsWe have systematically coproduced a new occupation-focused complex intervention to help people with PD to live well with anxiety. This provides the basis for the next project in which this intervention will be tested for feasibility. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: ISRCTN62762494.
