Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Background: Individuals with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) exhibit a heightened likelihood of developing erythema nodosum (EN), but the presence of causal link is unknown. The purpose of the present research was to investigate this connection using a bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. Methods: Summarized statistics for EN were sourced from the FinnGen consortium of European ancestry. The International Inflammatory Bowel Disease Genetic Consortium (IBDGC) was used to extract summary data for IBD. The inverse variance weighted (IVW) technique was the major method used to determine the causative link between them. Results: The study evaluated the reciprocal causal link between IBD and EN. The IVW technique confirmed a positive causal link between IBD and EN (OR = 1.237, 95% CI: 1.109–1.37, p = 1.43 × 10), as well as a strong causality connection between Crohn’s disease (CD) and EN (OR = 1.248, 95% CI: 1.156–1.348, p = 1.00 × 10). Nevertheless, a causal connection between ulcerative colitis (UC) and EN could not be established by the data. The reverse MR research findings indicated that analysis indicated that an increase in EN risks decreased the likelihood of UC (OR = 0.927, 95% CI: 0.861–0.997, p = 0.041), but the causal association of EN to IBD and CD could not be established. Conclusion: This investigation confirmed that IBD and CD had a causal connection with EN, whereas UC did not. In addition, EN may decrease the likelihood of UC. Further study must be performed to uncover the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms producing that connection.
