The genetic regulation of the gastric transcriptome is associated with metabolic and obesity-related traits and diseases.

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
Tissue-specific gene expression and gene regulation lead to a better understanding of tissue-specific physiology and pathophysiology. We analyzed the transcriptome and genetic regulatory profiles of two distinct gastric sites, corpus and antrum, to identify tissue-specific gene expression and its regulation. Gastric corpus and antrum mucosa biopsies were collected during routine gastroscopies from up to 431 healthy individuals. We obtained genotype and transcriptome data and performed transcriptome profiling and expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) studies. We further used data from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of various diseases and traits to partition their heritability and to perform transcriptome-wide association studies (TWAS). The transcriptome data from corpus and antral mucosa highlights the heterogeneity of gene expression in the stomach. We identified enriched pathways revealing distinct and common physiological processes in gastric corpus and antrum. Furthermore, we found an enrichment of the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-based heritability of metabolic, obesity-related, and cardiovascular traits and diseases by considering corpus- and antrum-specifically expressed genes. Particularly, we could prioritize gastric-specific candidate genes for multiple metabolic traits, like
