Causal relationships of gut microbiota, plasma metabolites, and metabolite ratios with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma: a Mendelian randomization study.
Article in Frontiers in microbiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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: Recent studies have revealed changes in microbiota constitution and metabolites associated with tumor progression, however, no causal relation between microbiota or metabolites and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) has yet been reported. Methods: We download a microbiota dataset from the MiBioGen study, a metabolites dataset from the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging (CLSA) study, and a DLBCL dataset from Integrative Epidemiology Unit Open genome-wide association study (GWAS) project. Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis was conducted using the R packages, TwoSampleMR and MR-PRESSO. Five MR methods were used: MR-Egger, inverse variance weighting (IVW), weighted median, simple mode, and weighted mode. Reverse MR analyses were also conducted to explore the causal effects of DLBCL on the microbiome, metabolites, and metabolite ratios. Pleiotropy was evaluated by MR Egger regression and MR-PRESSO global analyses, heterogeneity was assessed by Cochran's Q-test, and stability analyzed using the leave-one-out method. Results: 119 microorganisms, 1,091 plasma metabolite, and 309 metabolite ratios were analyzed. According to IVW analysis, five microorganisms were associated with risk of DLBCL. The genera Conclusion: We present the first elucidation of the causal influence of microbiota and metabolites on DLBCL using MR methods, providing novel insights for potential targeting of specific microbiota or metabolites to prevent, assist in diagnosis, and treat DLBCL.
