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

Background: While endometriosis (EM) has been previously associated with multiple immune factors, the causal relationship underlying these associations remains unclear. Objective: In this study, Two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) method was employed to investigate the causal relationship between 731 immune cell traits and EM based on tabulated data from genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Methods: MR method includes inverse variance weighting (IVW), the weighted median (WM), MR-Egger, the weighted model, and the simple model. IVW is used as the primary method for judging causal effects. Peripheral blood was obtained from EM patients, and the positive immune cell phenotype was confirmed using flow cytometry. Results: After Conclusion: Our study demonstrated a causal relationship between immune traits and EM, and the results were verified by clinical samples. The study may provide new biomarkers for the early diagnosis and immunotherapy of EM.
