The Causal Relationship Between Rheumatoid Arthritis and Mechanical Complications of Prosthesis After Arthroplasty: A Two-Sample Mendelian Randomization Study.
Article in Frontiers in genetics, 2022. 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
The causal effects of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) on complications of arthroplasty are yet to be established. This study was the first to explore the causal effect of RA on mechanical complications of prosthesis through two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR). In the MR analysis, RA was selected as the exposure in this study while single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from a genome-wide association study (GWAS) were selected as the instrumental variables (IVs). Summary statistics data on mechanical complications of prosthesis was extracted from publicly available GWAS data, including 463,010 European descent individuals. MR analysis was performed using the standard inverse variance weighted method (IVW). Furthermore, other methods (MR Egger, weighted median, simple mode, and weighted mode) were also done to verify the results. Finally, the sensitivity analysis was executed. Results of the standard IVW showed that RA possibly increases the risk of mechanical complications of prosthesis [OR = 1.000255; 95% CI = (1.0001035, 1.000406);
