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

Studies indicate a high psychiatric burden in autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) patients, yet research on their genetic links remains unclear. This study comprehensively explores their genetic connections. The correlation metric, genetic correlation (rg), can measure the shared biological basis and explore the genetic architecture. We used the summary statistics from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) to accurately calculate the global and bivariate local genetic correlations between AIH and psychiatric disorders. Cross-trait GWAS meta-analysis for multiple traits can efficiently evaluate single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) level summary statistics. We employ molecular characteristics to conduct unit tests in various tissues and annotate the corresponding loci. Through multiple genetic covariant tests, we identified 314 unique regions out of 1185 bivariate regions, including chr1p31.1, chr15q25.1, and chr3p14.1. Furthermore, it was discovered that AIH and psychiatric disorders share co-enrichment in multiple brain tissues, including the cerebellum hemisphere, cortex, pituitary, and nucleus accumbens basal ganglia, with PTRHD1, ANKK1, RPS26, YJEFN3, and C2orf69 identified as potential functional genes. The results of the above analyses were verified through multiple colocalization and functional enrichment assessments. Our study has identified pleiotropic genomic regions linking AIH and psychiatric disorders, providing effective strategies for the treatment of diseases.
