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

Background: The gut microbiota plays a pivotal role in influencing various health outcomes, including immune-mediated conditions. Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis (GPA) is one such condition, and its potential associations with gut microbiota remain underexplored. Method: Using a two-sample Mendelian randomization approach, we investigated the causal links between gut microbiota and GPA. We sourced our data from multiple cohorts and consortiums, including the MiBioGen consortium. Our study design incorporated both direct associations and mediation effects of immune traits on the relationship between gut microbiota and GPA. Results: Our analysis revealed significant associations between 1 phylum, 1 family 9 genus microbiota taxa and GPA. Furthermore, we identified several immune cell traits that mediated the effects of gut microbiota on GPA. For instance, the family Defluviitaleaceae and genus Defluviitaleaceae UCG011 influenced GPA through CD11c in granulocytes. The mediation effect proportions further elucidated the complex dynamics between gut microbiota exposures, immune markers, and their combined influence on GPA. Conclusion: Our findings underscore the intricate relationship between gut microbiota, immune markers, and GPA. The identified associations and mediation effects provide valuable insights into the potential therapeutic avenues targeting gut microbiota to manage GPA.
