1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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: Studies have indicated an association between gut microbiota (GM) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). However, the causality between GM and NHL remains unclear. This study aims to investigate the causality between GM and NHL using Mendelian randomization (MR). Methods: Data on GM is sourced from the MiBioGen consortium, while data on NHL and its subtypes is sourced from the FinnGen consortium R10 version. Inverse variance weighted (IVW) was employed for the primary MR analysis method, with methods such as Bayesian weighted Mendelian randomisation (BWMR) as an adjunct. Sensitivity analyses were conducted using Cochran's Q test, MR-Egger regression, MR-PRESSO, and the "Leave-one-out" method. Results: The MR results showed that there is a causality between 27 GMs and NHL. Among them, 20 were negatively associated (OR < 1), and 7 were positively associated (OR > 1) with the corresponding diseases. All 27 MR results passed sensitivity tests, and there was no reverse causal association. Conclusion: By demonstrating a causal link between GM and NHL, this research offers novel ideas to prevent, monitor, and cure NHL later.
