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

Asthma, hay fever and eczema are three comorbid diseases with high prevalence and heritability. Their common genetic architectures have not been well-elucidated. In this study, we first conducted a linkage disequilibrium score regression analysis to confirm the strong genetic correlations between asthma, hay fever and eczema. We then integrated three distinct association analyses (metaCCA multi-trait association analysis, MAGMA genome-wide and MetaXcan transcriptome-wide gene-based tests) to identify shared risk genes based on the large-scale GWAS results in the GeneATLAS database. MetaCCA can detect pleiotropic genes associated with these three diseases jointly. MAGMA and MetaXcan were performed separately to identify candidate risk genes for each of the three diseases. We finally identified 150 shared risk genes, in which 60 genes are novel. Functional enrichment analysis revealed that the shared risk genes are enriched in inflammatory bowel disease, T cells differentiation and other related biological pathways. Our work may provide help on treatment of asthma, hay fever and eczema in clinical applications.
