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

Skin inflammation and immune regulation have been suggested to be associated with allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) progression, but whether the system's immune regulation is a cause or a potential mechanism is still unknown. This study aims to assess the upstream and downstream of systemic immune factors on ACD within a bidirectional Mendelian-randomization design. A bidirectional two-sample MR analysis was employed to implement the results from genome-wide association studies for 52 system immune factors and ACD. Genetic associations with systemic immune factors and ACD were obtained from the IEU Open GWAS project database. The inverse-variance weighted (IVW) method was adopted as the primary MR analysis, MR-Egger, weighted median, MR-pleiotropy residual sum, and outlier (MR-PRESSO) was also used as the sensitivity analyses. Only Tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 11 (TNFS11) from among 52 systemic immune factors was associated with a protective effect of ACD. However, ACD was associated with a decrease in Interleukin-9 (IL9) and an increase in C-X-C motif chemokine 1 (GROα), Tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 10 (TRAIL), C4, and complement factor B of the assessed systemic immune factors. This study identified TNFS11 as the upstream regulator and IL9, GROα, TRAIL, C4, and complement factor B as the downstream regulator of ACD, providing opportunities for new therapeutic exploitation of ACD. Nonetheless, these associations of systemic immune factors need to be verified in vivo.
