Artificial Sweetener and the Risk of Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes: A Mendelian Randomization Study.
Article in Nutrients, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 relationship between the intake of artificial sweetener (AS) and adverse pregnancy outcomes is under-researched, and existing studies yield inconsistent conclusions. A Mendelian randomization (MR) approach was employed to investigate the causal relationship between the intake of AS and adverse pregnancy outcomes. Instrumental variables related to the exposure phenotype were selected for analysis. The analysis was conducted using genome-wide association study summary data from public datasets. The inverse variance weighted, MR-Egger, weighted median, simple mode, and weighted mode methods were used to evaluate the causal relationship between exposure and outcomes. Sensitivity analysis and multivariable Mendelian randomization enrolling body mass index, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and fasting glucose were employed to further validate the consistency and robustness of the results. In univariable MR, the intake of AS added to tea was associated with an increased risk of ectopic pregnancy [OR = 1.821 (1.118-2.967),
