Association of body mass index and Parkinson disease
Domenighetti, Cloé; Sugier, Pierre-Emmanuel; Ashok Kumar Sreelatha, Ashwin; Schulte, Claudia; Grover, Sandeep; Portugal, Berta; Lee, Pei-ChenBackground and objectives: The role of body mass index (BMI) in Parkinson disease (PD) is unclear. Based on the Comprehensive Unbiased Risk Factor Assessment for Genetics and Environment in PD (Courage-PD) consortium, we used 2-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) to replicate a previously reported inverse association of genetically predicted BMI with PD and investigated whether findings were robust in analyses ...
Confusion of evidence‐based reviews and guidelines
Deuschl, Günther; Antonini, Angelo; Costa, João; Śmiłowska, Katarzyna; Berg, Daniela; Corvol, Jean‐Christophe; Fabbrini, Giovanni; Ferreira, Joaquim JHariz and colleagues [1] argue that the new EAN/MDS GL contradicts the repeated endorsements of pallidotomy by the MDS. The MDS has previously published “evidence based medicine (EBM) reviews,” which appraise each treatment on the basis of welldefined criteria but are not GLs. Clinical GLs, such as the new EAN/MDS GL, also take into consideration other variables, including context, summarizing the current medic...
Dairy intake and Parkinson's disease: a Mendelian randomization study
Domenighetti, Cloé; Sugier, Pierre‐Emmanuel; Ashok Kumar Sreelatha, Ashwin; Schulte, Claudia; Grover, Sandeep; Mohamed, Océane; Portugal, BertaBackground: Previous prospective studies highlighted dairy intake as a risk factor for Parkinson's disease (PD), particularly in men. It is unclear whether this association is causal or explained by reverse causation or confounding. Objective: The aim is to examine the association between genetically predicted dairy intake and PD using two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR). Methods: We genotyped a well-establ...
