Shared genetics linking sociability with the brain's default mode network.

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
The brain's default mode network (DMN) plays a role in social cognition, with altered DMN function being associated with social impairments across various neuropsychiatric disorders. In the present study, we examined the genetic relationship between sociability and DMN-related resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) traits. To this end, we used genome-wide association summary statistics for sociability and 31 activity and 64 connectivity DMN-related rs-fMRI traits (N=34,691-342,461). First, we examined global and local genetic correlations between sociability and the rs-fMRI traits. Second, to assess putatively causal relationships between the traits, we conducted bi-directional Mendelian randomisation (MR) analyses. Finally, we prioritised genes influencing both sociability and rs-fMRI traits by combining three methods: gene-expression eQTL MR analyses, the CELLECT framework using single-nucleus RNA-seq data, and network propagation in the context of a protein-protein interaction network. Significant local genetic correlations were found between sociability and two rs-fMRI traits, one representing spontaneous activity within the temporal cortex, the other representing connectivity between the frontal/cingulate and angular/temporal cortices. Sociability affected 12 rs-fMRI traits when allowing for weakly correlated genetic instruments. Combing all three methods for gene prioritisation, we defined 17 highly prioritised genes, with
