Causal Effects of Immune Cells on Reproductive Ill-Health, Including Abnormal Spermatozoa, Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Spontaneous Abortion: Mendelian Randomization Analyses.
Article in Journal of multidisciplinary healthcare, 2025. 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
Background: Accumulative prior studies have demonstrated that immune inflammation profoundly influences reproductive disorders of mesodermal origin. However, little is known about the causal relationship between immune factors and diseases of the reproductive system. Methods: Thorough two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses were conducted to determine the causal effects of 731 immune traits on reproductive ill-health, including abnormal spermatozoa (AS), polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and spontaneous abortion (SA). Causal links were decrypted using genome-wide association study (GWAS) data. Sensitivity analyses were performed to assess the strength, heterogeneity, and horizontal pleiotropy of the results. Results: For AS, 34 causal relationships were identified, with BAFF-R, CD20, and CD27 in the B-cell panel having protective effects against AS. A crucial causative connection between Conclusion: This study comprehensively evaluated the causal impact of immune traits on reproductive illnesses, stressing the complex and important role of immunogenic factors in pathogenesis and highlighting a novel direction for clinical work.
