Genetically Proxied Autoimmune Diseases and the Risk of Facial Aging.

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
Purpose: Previous studies have suggested a relationship between autoimmune diseases and the risk of facial skin aging. However, evidence from population-based studies on this topic is limited, leaving the causal association between these factors unknown. This study aimed to systematically evaluate the causal effects of 18 autoimmune diseases on the risk of facial skin aging, aim of providing strategies to mitigate early facial aging in patients with autoimmune diseases. Patients and Methods: We conducted univariate Mendelian randomization (UVMR) analyses to examine the causal relationship between 18 autoimmune diseases and facial aging using publicly available summary data from genome-wide association studies (GWASs). We also conducted multivariate Mendelian randomization (MVMR) analyses to adjust for confounding factors, including smoking, alcohol consumption, and body mass index (BMI). Results: The main inverse variance weighted (IVW) method revealed that genetically proxied ankylosing spondylitis (AS) (OR 1.017; 95% CI: 1.003-1.031; Conclusion: These findings indicated that autoimmune diseases play a causal role in facial skin aging. Therefore, patients with autoimmune diseases should take appropriate measures to prevent early facial aging.
