Clinical and genetic contributions to medical comorbidity in bipolar disorder: a study using electronic health records-linked biobank data.

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
Bipolar disorder is a chronic and complex polygenic disease with high rates of comorbidity. However, the independent contribution of either diagnosis or genetic risk of bipolar disorder to the medical comorbidity profile of individuals with the disease remains unresolved. Here, we conducted a multi-step phenome-wide association study (PheWAS) of bipolar disorder using phenomes derived from the electronic health records of participants enrolled in the Mayo Clinic Biobank and the Mayo Clinic Bipolar Disorder Biobank. First, we explored the conditions associated with a diagnosis of bipolar disorder by conducting a phenotype-based PheWAS followed by LASSO-penalized regression to account for correlations within the phenome. Then, we explored the conditions associated with bipolar disorder polygenic risk score (BD-PRS) using a PRS-based PheWAS with a sequential exclusion approach to account for the possibility that diagnosis, instead of genetic risk, may drive such associations. 53,386 participants (58.7% women) with a mean age at analysis of 67.8 years (SD = 15.6) were included. A bipolar disorder diagnosis (n = 1479) was associated with higher rates of psychiatric conditions, injuries and poisonings, endocrine/metabolic and neurological conditions, viral hepatitis C, and asthma. BD-PRS was associated with psychiatric comorbidities but, in contrast, had no positive associations with general medical conditions. While our findings warrant confirmation with longitudinal-prospective studies, the limited associations between bipolar disorder genetics and medical conditions suggest that shared environmental effects or environmental consequences of diagnosis may have a greater impact on the general medical comorbidity profile of individuals with bipolar disorder than its genetic risk.
