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: Accumulating evidence suggests that alterations in gut microbiota composition and diversity are associated with Atopic dermatitis (AD). But until now, the causal association between them has been unclear. Methods: We employed a two-sample Mendelian Randomization (MR) study to estimate the potential causality of gut microbiota on AD risk. The summary statistics related to the gut microbiota were obtained from a large-scale genome-wide genotype and 16S fecal microbiome dataset from 18,340 individuals (24 cohorts) analyzed by the MiBioGen Consortium, comprising 211 gut microbiota. AD data were also derived from strictly defined AD data collected by FinnGen biobank analysis, which included 218,467 European ancestors (5,321 AD patients and 213,146 controls). The inverse variance weighted method (IVW), weighted median (WME), and MR-Egger were used to determine the changes of AD pathogenic bacterial taxa, followed by sensitivity analysis including horizontal pleiotropy analysis, Cochran's Q test, and the leave-one-out method to assess the reliability of the results. In addition, MR Steiger's test was used to test the suppositional relationship between exposure and outcome. Results: A total of 2,289 SNPs ( Conclusion: The present MR analysis genetically suggests a causal relationship between changes in the abundance of the gut microbiota and AD risk, thus not only providing support for gut microecological therapy of AD but also laying the groundwork for further exploration of the mechanisms by which the gut microbiota contributes to the pathogenesis of AD.
