pandasGWAS: a Python package for easy retrieval of GWAS catalog data.
Article in BMC genomics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundSince the NHGRI-EBI Catalog of human genome-wide association studies was established by NHGRI in 2008, research on it has attracted more and more researchers as the amount of data has grown rapidly. Easy-to-use, open-source, general-purpose programs for accessing the NHGRI-EBI Catalog of human genome-wide association studies are in great demand for current Python data analysis pipeline.
resultsIn this work we present pandasGWAS, a Python package that provides programmatic access to the NHGRI-EBI Catalog of human genome-wide association studies. Instead of downloading all data locally, pandasGWAS queries data based on input criteria and handles paginated data gracefully. The data is then transformed into multiple associated pandas.DataFrame objects according to its hierarchical relationships, which makes it easy to integrate into current Python-based data analysis toolkits.
conclusionspandasGWAS is an open-source Python package that provides the first Python client interface to the GWAS Catalog REST API. Compared with existing tools, the data structure of pandasGWAS is more consistent with the design specification of GWAS Catalog REST API, and provides many easy-to-use mathematical symbol operations.
