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: Several studies have explored the relationship between intracranial aneurysms and psychiatric disorders; nevertheless, the causal connection remains ambiguous. This study aimed to evaluate the causal link between intracranial aneurysms and specific psychiatric disorders. Methods: A two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis was conducted utilizing aggregated genome-wide association study (GWAS) data from the International Stroke Genetics Association for Intracranial Aneurysms (IAs), unruptured Intracranial Aneurysm (uIA), and aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage (aSAH). Psychiatric disorder data, encompassing Schizophrenia (SCZ), Bipolar Disorder (BD), and Panic Disorder (PD), were sourced from the Psychiatric Genomics Consortium (PGC), while Cognitive Impairment (CI) data, comprising Cognitive Function (CF) and Cognitive Performance (CP), were obtained from IEU OpenGWAS publications. Causal effects were evaluated using inverse variance weighted (IVW), MR-Egger, and weighted median methods, with the robustness of findings assessed via sensitivity analyses employing diverse methodological approaches. Results: Our MR analysis indicated no discernible causal link between intracranial aneurysm (IA) and an elevated susceptibility to psychiatric disorders. However, among individuals with genetically predisposed unruptured intracranial aneurysms (uIA), there was a modest reduction in the risk of SCZ (IVW odds ratio [OR] = 0.95, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.92-0.98, Conclusion: Our findings furnish compelling evidence suggesting a causal influence of intracranial aneurysms on psychiatric disorders, specifically, both IAs and uIA exhibit a negative causal association with SCZ.
