No genetic causality between obesity and benign paroxysmal vertigo: A two-sample Mendelian randomization study.
Article in Open medicine (Warsaw, Poland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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: We applied Mendelian randomization to explore the causal relationship between obesity and benign paroxysmal vertigo (BPV). Methods: We chose two types of obesity diseases. Obesity due to excessive calories and other or unspecified obesity from the FinnGen database. We used genomic significance ( Results: First, by analyzing, we found an outlier in obesity due to excessive calories (rs12956821). Outliers were then removed, and the statistical results were analyzed without heterogeneity ( Conclusions: The present study did not find a causal relationship between the above two obesity types and BPV at the genetic level.
