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

Physical activity is associated with cancer of the male genitalia. However, the genetic causality of this association remains unclear. In this study, Mendelian randomization (MR) was used to explore the potential causal relationship between different intensities of physical activity and cancer of the male genitalia. This study utilized single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with vigorous exercise obtained from published genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and summary genetic data associated with male genital cancer from published GWAS. The main analysis method used was the inverse variance weighted (IVW) method for two-sample MR analysis. The heterogeneity of the results was assessed using Cochran's Q statistic, while horizontal pleiotropy was assessed using MR-Egger. Sensitivity analysis included a "leave-one-out" test. The results showed that light DIY activity was a risk factor for male genital cancer (OR = 1.045, 95% confidence interval [1.004, 1.089],
