Association between type 1 diabetes mellitus and ankylosing spondylitis: a two-sample Mendelian randomization study.
Article 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 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
Objective: The development of ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is closely related to autoimmune system dysfunction. Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is an autoimmune disease that is a risk factor for many diseases. This study aimed to investigate the causal relationship between T1DM mellitus and AS genetically. Methods: A genome-wide association study (GWAS) of causal relationships between exposure (T1DM) and outcome (AS) was performed using summary data from the GWAS database. We conducted a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) study of these two diseases. Inverse variance weighting (IVW) was used as the primary analysis method, with MR Egger, weighted median, and weighted mode used as supplementary methods. Sensitivity analyses were performed using Cochran's Q test, MR-Egger intercept, MR-Pleiotropy RESidual Sum and outlier methods, leave-one-out analysis, and funnel plots. Results: A total of 11 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)were identified for instrumental variables(IVs) for MR analysis.IVW found that T1DM was causally associated with AS ((IVW: OR = 1.0006 (95% CI 1.0001, 1.0011), p = 0.0057; MR-Egger: OR = 1.0003 (95% CI 0.9995, 1.0012), p = 0.4147; weighted median: OR = 1.0006 (95% CI 1.0003, 1.0008), p = 0.0001; weighted mode: OR = 1.0007 (95% CI 1.0005, 1.0009), p = 0.0001). No horizontal pleiotropy was found for the MR-Egger intercept, and leave -one-out analysis found that the results remained stable after the removal of individual SNPs. Conclusion: The results of the two-sample MR analysis supported a causal relationship between T1DM and AS risk.
