Insights from the largest diverse ancestry sex-specific disease map for genetically predicted height.
Article in NPJ genomic medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
We performed ancestry and sex specific Phenome Wide Association Studies (PheWAS) to explore disease related outcomes associated with genetically predicted height. This is the largest PheWAS on genetically predicted height involving up to 840,000 individuals of diverse ancestry. We explored European, African, East Asian ancestries and Hispanic population groups. Increased genetically predicted height is associated with hyperpotassemia and autism in the male cross-ancestry analysis. We report male-only European ancestry associations with anxiety disorders, post-traumatic stress and substance addiction and disorders. We identify a signal with benign neoplasm of other parts of digestive system in females. We report associations with a series of disorders, several with no prior evidence of association with height, involving mental disorders and the endocrine system. Our study suggests that increased genetically predicted height is associated with higher prevalence of many clinically relevant traits which has important implications for epidemiological and clinical disease surveillance and risk stratification.
