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

Purpose: To investigate genetically supported molecular factors associated with uveitis and to evaluate the clinical, transcriptomic, and retinal relevance of intercellular adhesion molecule 5 (ICAM-5) across major immune-mediated non-infectious uveitis subtypes. Methods: Two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) was conducted using eQTLGen eQTL data and two independent pQTL resources (Icelandic SomaScan and FinnGen R10), with uveitis GWAS summary statistics as the outcome. Results: Genetically predicted higher Conclusion: Multi-omics MR, clinical protein quantification, transcriptomic analysis, and retinal single-cell profiling provide convergent evidence linking ICAM-5 to immune-mediated non-infectious uveitis. These findings support ICAM-5 as a genetically supported candidate mediator and circulating biomarker.
