Therapeutic role of interleukin-1 receptor antagonist in pancreatic diseases: mendelian randomization study.
Synthesis in Frontiers in immunology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Background: The interleukin-1 pathway has been linked to pancreatic diseases. We applied the Mendelian randomization approach to explore whether higher interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1RA) levels reduce the risk of acute and chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer. Methods: Genetic variants associated with blood IL-1RA levels at the genome-wide significance level and located 5MB downstream or upstream of the Results: Genetically predicted higher levels of IL-1RA were associated with a lower risk of acute and chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer. In the meta-analysis of UK Biobank and FinnGen, the combined odds ratio was 0.87 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.77-0.97, Conclusion: This study suggests a protective role of IL-1RA in three major pancreatic diseases, which hints the therapeutic potentials of IL-1RA in pancreatic diseases.
