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: Although observational studies have suggested a bidirectional relation between depression and intracranial aneurysms (IAs), their causal relations remain unclear. Thus we aimed to assess the causal association between depression and IAs. Methods: We conducted a bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) study using summary-level data from publicly available genome-wide association studies of depression ( Results: Genetically predicted depression was strongly positively related to IAs (odds ratio [OR] = 1.69, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.19-2.39, Conclusion: Our findings provide evidence of a causal effect of depression on IAs, uIA, and SAH. For the reverse MR analyses, we found a causal impact of uIA on depression, but no causal influence of either IAs or SAH for depression.
