Impact of gout on colorectal cancer and its survival: a two-sample Mendelian randomization study.
Article in Discover oncology, 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
backgroundThe relationship between gout and colorectal cancer (CRC) remains unclear, emphasizing the need for additional research to clarify the potential cumulative effect of gout on CRC development.
methodsLeveraging a single nucleotide polymorphism-based genome-wide association study, the potential causal correlation between gout and CRC was initially analyzed using Mendelian randomization (MR). Subsequently, our analysis was expanded to include an assessment of patient survival, with the aim of evaluating the potential causal correlation between gout and CRC and the impact of gout on CRC survival outcomes.
resultsAccording to MR findings, a substantial relationship was observed between gout and the incidence of CRC when CRC was used as the outcome (OR = 0.954, 95% CI = 0.915-0.995). These results indicate a negative relationship between gout and the likelihood of developing CRC. In addition, when evaluating the overall survival (OS) or cancer-specific survival (CSS) of patients with CRC as outcomes, gout exhibited a significant relationship with survival. The inverse variance weighting approach demonstrated a progressive enhancement in CRC survival with the cumulative impact of gout (OS: OR = 2.000 × 10
conclusionAs gout accumulates, it exerts an inhibitory influence on CRC, indicating a potential protective effect. This study provides robust evidence that can guide the development of future clinical treatment approaches and research priorities.
