Bone morphogenetic protein 10 and atrial fibrillation.
Article in International journal of cardiology. Heart & vasculature, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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 association between bone morphogenetic protein 10 (BMP10) and atrial fibrillation (AF) has been widely investigated by observational studies, but their causal relationships remain inconclusive. Here, we aimed to evaluate the causal effect of BMP10 on the risk of AF through single-nucleotide polymorphisms. Methods: A Mendelian randomization (MR) analytic framework was applied to data from two BMP10-specific genome-wide association studies comprising a total of 11,036,163 single-nucleotide polymorphisms of European ancestry. Instrument genetic variants associated with BMP10 were selected. A total of 12 AF-specific genome-wide association studies comprising a total of 5,095,117 European participants were included. Summary statistic-based methods of inverse variance weighted, MR Egger, weighted median, simple mode, and weighted mode methods were used. Pleiotropy and sensitivity were assessed. Results: Specific to AF-specific genome-wide association studies, we found that BMP10 was not associated with AF among different methods (all Conclusions: This large-scale population study upon data from BMP10- and AF-specific genome-wide association studies and a longitudinal biobank cohort indicates plausible non-causal associations between BMP10 and AF in the European populations. Further studies regarding ancestral diversity are warranted to validate such causal associations.
