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

Increasing age is a risk factor of gastroesophageal reflux disease. This study aims to uncover the shared genetic architecture of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and age-related phenotypes. Based on publicly available GWAS statistics, this genome-wide pleiotropic association research was performed with multiple genetic approaches sequentially to explore the pleiotropic associations from single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and gene levels, to reveal the underlying shared genetic etiology between GERD and age-related phenotypes. This study featured shared genetic mechanisms between GERD and age-related phenotypes, including frailty index (FI), telomere length (TL), longevity, and parental lifespan (PL). Strong genetic association were observed. A set of pleiotropic loci and genes were identified by PLACO, FUMA, Bayesian colocalization and additional MAGMA analysis. Our research provided strong evidence of genetic correlation between GERD and several age-related phenotypes, especially frailty index (FI) and telomere length (TL), brought novel insight into the shared genetic architecture between GERD and aging.
