Large-scale genome-wide interaction analyses on multiple cardiometabolic risk factors to identify age-specific genetic risk factors.
Article in GeroScience, 2025. 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
The genetic landscape of cardiometabolic risk factors has been explored extensively. However, insight in the effects of genetic variation on these risk factors over the life course is sparse. Here, we performed genome-wide interaction studies (GWIS) on different cardiometabolic risk factors to identify age-specific genetic risks. This study included 270,276 unrelated European-ancestry participants from the UK Biobank (54.2% women, a median age of 58 [interquartile range (IQR): 50, 63] years). GWIS models with interaction terms between genetic variants and age were performed on apolipoprotein B (ApoB), low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C), log-transformed triglycerides (TG), body mass index (BMI) and systolic blood pressure (SBP). Replication was subsequently performed in the Copenhagen General Population Study (CGPS) and the Estonian Biobank (EstBB). Multiple lead variants were identified to have genome-wide significant interactions with age (P
