Unified long-read panel for Parkinson's and repeat expansion disorders.
Article in NPJ Parkinson's disease, 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
In this study, we designed a gene panel based on Nanopore long-read sequencing using adaptive sampling, targeting n = 564 genes associated with Parkinson's disease (PD) and repeat expansion disorders. We investigated its diagnostic utility in n = 18 patients with (1) pathogenic variants in LRRK2, PRKN, SNCA, and RAB32 (n = 7); (2) idiopathic PD or FTD negative for known genetic causes (n = 3); (3) repeat expansions in ATXN1, ATXN2, ATXN3, C9orf72, DAB1, FGF14, HTT, and TAF1-SVA (n = 8). Three individuals were multiplexed per flow cell, achieving a mean coverage of 24X (SD = ± 9X) per sample. Ultimately, 17/20 (85%; Clopper-Pearson 95% CI: 62-97%) expected pathogenic variants were identified; i.e., an SNCA triplication and two repeat expansions in C9orf72 and TAF1-SVA were missed. Additional variants in STXBP2, AP4S1, RARS2, ALS2, and CNBP were identified in five patients. Adaptive sampling is a versatile genetic diagnostic tool in neurodegenerative disorders, while enabling cost-effective multiplexing. Further validation and improvements in bioinformatic analysis are needed.
