Exploring the genetic association between immune cells and susceptibility to osteonecrosis using large-scale population data.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Objectives: Research shows a close association between aberrant immune reactions in osteonecrotic tissues and immune cell infiltration. However, due to limitations in sample size and dataset comprehensiveness, the causal relationship between them is not fully established. This study aims to determine whether there is a causal relationship using a larger and more diverse dataset. Methods: We conducted a comprehensive Mendelian Randomization (MR) analysis to investigate the causal relationship between immune cell characteristics and osteonecrosis. Utilizing publicly available genetic data, we explored the causal relationships between 731 immune cell features and 604 cases from the FinnGen Finnish database, as well as 257 cases from the UK Biobank database with osteonecrosis data. The inverse-variance weighted (IVW) method was used for the primary analysis, and we employed sensitivity analyses to assess the robustness of the main results. In addition, considering data from the two databases used in this study, a meta-analysis was conducted on the significant immune cells associated with osteonecrosis (FDR <0.05). Results: our findings suggested that specific immune cell signatures, such as CD20 Conclusion: From a genetic perspective, we demonstrated a close association between immune cells and osteonecrosis. These findings significantly enhance our understanding of the interplay between immune cell infiltration and the risk of osteonecrosis, contributing to the potential design of therapeutic strategies from an immunological standpoint.
