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: Numerous observational studies have suggested an association between psychiatric traits and carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT). However, whether these associations have a causal relationship remains unknown, largely due to issues of reverse causality and potential confounders. This study aims to elucidate the potential causal role of psychiatric traits in the risk of arterial injury as measured by cIMT. Methods: We utilized instrumental variables for attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD, Results: The Mendelian randomization analyses indicated a suggestive causal link between genetically predicted ADHD and cIMT (beta = 0.05; 95% confidence interval, 0.01-0.09; Conclusions: This study provides insights into the risk effect of ADHD on cIMT, suggesting that arteriopathy and potential associated complications should be considered during the treatment and monitoring of patients with ADHD.
