Causal association of juvenile idiopathic arthritis-associated uveitis with depression and anxiety: a bidirectional Mendelian randomization study.
Article in International ophthalmology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
purposeThe objective of this article was to examine the potential effect of juvenile idiopathic arthritis-associated uveitis (JIAU) on the risk of major depressive and anxiety disorders through Mendelian randomization (MR) study.
methodsGenetic instrumental variables from the largest available genome-wide association study for JIAU, major depressive disorder, and anxiety disorder were applied. A set of complementary MR approaches including inverse-variance weighted (IVW) were carried out to verify the estimate association and assess horizontal pleiotropy.
resultsOur results indicated that genetically driven JIAU did not causally produce changes in major depressive or anxiety disorders (IVW: OR = 1.001, 95% CI = 0.997-1.006, P = 0.581; IVW: OR = 1.006, 95% CI = 0.980-1.033, P = 0.649, respectively). In addition, the risk of JIAU could not be influenced by genetically predicted major depressive or anxiety disorders (IVW: OR = 1.132, 95% CI = 0.914-1.404, P = 0.256; IVW: OR = 1.019, 95% CI = 0.548-1.896, P = 0.953, respectively). Besides, several sensitivity analyses indicated that our MR results were robust and no horizontal pleiotropy was observed (P > 0.05).
conclusionsOur MR study does not reveal sufficient evidence to support the causal association of JIAU with the development of major depressive or anxiety disorders in both directions. Further large studies are warranted to validate the undetermined relationship between JIAU and the risk of major depressive or anxiety disorders.
