BMI Interacts with the Genome to Regulate Gene Expression Globally, with Emphasis in the Brain and Gut.
Article in medRxiv : the preprint server for health sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Genome-wide association studies identify common genomic variants associated with disease across a population. Individual environmental effects are often not included, despite evidence that environment mediates genomic regulation of higher order biology. Body mass index (BMI) is associated with complex disorders across clinical specialties, yet has not been modeled as a genomic environment. Here, we tested for expression quantitative trait (eQTL) loci that contextually regulate gene expression across the BMI spectrum using an interaction approach. We parsed the impact of cell type, enhancer interactions, and created novel BMI-dynamic gene expression predictor models. We found that BMI main effects associated with endocrine gene expression, while interactive variant-by-BMI effects impacted gene expression in the brain and gut. Cortical BMI-dynamic loci were experimentally dysregulated by inflammatory cytokines in an
