Genetic factors associated with erectile dysfunction- mendelian randomisation analysis.
Article in American journal of clinical and experimental urology, 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
backgroundStudies have established a strong link between erectile dysfunction (ED) and genetic factors. However, the genetic protective genes associated with ED have yet to be identified. In this study, we used Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis to investigate potential genetic protective genes related to ED.
methodsWe used ED-associated GWAS data and whole blood expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) data from the Finnish database, which included 1,154 cases and 94,024 controls, for our analysis, resulting in a total of 95,178 individuals for Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. To further identify potential causative genes and explore their functional roles and relationship to phenotype, we conducted PPI and single-cell analysis using the GSE206528 dataset.
resultsThe MR analysis identified 263 genes associated with ED, with TRIP10 showing the highest degree, exhibiting an odds ratio (OR) of 0.58. Located on chromosome 7, TRIP10 plays a protective role in ED. Single-cell sequencing analysis revealed that TRIP10 is most highly expressed in endothelial cells and tissue stem cells, particularly in endothelial cells. Through PPI and single-cell analysis, we further identified potential causative genes, shedding light on their functions and their connection to the phenotype.
conclusionsOur study found that among the 263 genes associated with ED, TRIP10 was strongly linked to a decreased risk of ED. These findings offer valuable insights for the personalized treatment of ED from a genetic perspective.
