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: To investigate the causal association between SUA and gastric cancer risk and elucidate the underlying biological mechanisms. Methods: A two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) design was adopted. The inverse-variance weighted (IVW) method served as the primary analysis, supplemented by MR-Egger, weighted median, simple mode and weighted mode methods. Sensitivity analyses included the MR-Egger intercept test for horizontal pleiotropy, Cochran's Results: Genetically elevated SUA was causally associated with reduced gastric cancer risk in the IVW analysis (OR = 0.76, 95% CI: 0.62-0.92, Conclusions: SUA exerts a protective causal effect against gastric cancer. The anti-tumor effect is mechanistically driven by oxidative stress induction and PI3K/AKT pathway inhibition, with SNP-associated genes linked to gastric cancer progression via metabolism-related signaling pathways.
