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

Objective: The present study aims to determine the causal association between sodium-glucose cotransporter inhibitors and depression, as previous observational studies have concluded a potential link between sodium-glucose cotransporter 1/2 inhibition and depression. Methods: A total of 16 instrumental variables mimicking sodium-glucose cotransporter-1 inhibition and 6 instrumental variables mimicking sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibition were selected for the study. Depression data from the Psychiatric Genomics Consortium and the UK Biobank ( Results: Our results indicated that genetically predicted sodium-glucose cotransporter-1 inhibition was negatively related with depression risk (OR Conclusions: The findings of this Mendelian randomization study indicate that sodium-glucose cotransporter-1 inhibition may decrease the risk of depression in the European population. Future studies must be done to clarify the mechanisms that underlie the causal relationship. Our study provides clear evidence of the potential benefits of sodium-glucose cotransporter-1 inhibition in depression.
