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/

objectivesPsoriasis and age-related macular degeneration (AMD) may share immune-related pathophysiologic characteristics. However, few studies have investigated the relationship between psoriasis and AMD. We assessed the possible causal link between psoriasis and AMD in European populations.

methodsSingle-nucleotide polymorphisms associated with psoriasis exposure were employed as instrumental variables (IVs) based on genome-wide significance (

resultsWe observed significant causal associations of psoriasis with AMD. Using the weighted median method, the odds ratio (OR) was 1.09 (95% CI = [1.03-1.16] and

conclusionsA potential causal association between psoriasis and AMD underscores the need to investigate inflammation as a risk factor for AMD.
