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

backgroundInflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is occasionally associated with ophthalmic diseases, including iridocyclitis (IC). The co-occurrence of IBD and IC has been increasingly observed, possibly due to shared genetic structures.

methodsA three-part analysis was executed utilizing genome-wide association study (GWAS) data on IBD and IC. First, the overall genetic correlation between the two traits was observed using linkage disequilibrium score regression (LDSC). Subsequent to this, a local genetic correlation analysis was conducted utilizing the heritability estimation from summary statistics (HESS) methodology. Finally, the conditional/conjunctional false discovery rate (cond/conjFDR) statistical framework was utilized to ascertain the degree of genetic overlap between the two traits.

resultsPositive overall correlations were observed among IBD, ulcerative colitis (UC), and IC, encompassing both acute/subacute and chronic IC presentations. While a significant correlation was identified between Crohn's disease (CD) and IC, it was not evident for acute/subacute or chronic IC (P > 0.05). Notably, IBD (encompassing CD and UC) demonstrated local genetic correlations with IC and acute/subacute IC, with pronounced enrichment notably on chromosomes 1 and 6, though such correlations were not observed with chronic IC. The conjFDR analysis confirmed the genetic overlap between the two diseases. The shared genes overlapping between IBD (encompassing CD and UC) and IC were IL23R, GPR35, and ERAP1. For acute/subacute IC and chronic IC, there were six overlapping genes (GPR35, RPL23AP12, IL23R, SNAPC4, ERAP1, and INAVA) and one overlapping gene (INAVA), respectively.

conclusionThis study confirms the existence of a shared genetic structure between IBD and IC, providing a biological basis for their comorbidity. Additionally, this finding has significant implications for preventing and treating these two diseases.
