Purpose It has been found that childhood obesity (CO) may play an important role in the onset and progression of osteoarthritis (OA). Thus we conducted this mendelian randomisation analysis (MR) to evaluate causal association between osteoarthritis.Methods Instrumental variables (IVs) were obtained from publicly available genome-wide study datasets. The leave-one-out sensitivity test, MR Pleiotropy RESidual Sum Outlier test (MR-PRESSO), Cochran's Q used confirm heterogeneity pleiotropy...

Background Previous observational studies have found an association between inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and psoriasis. Using the mendelian randomization (MR) approach, we aim to determine whether there was a causal IBD Methods We performed two-sample MR with genetic instruments identified for its main subtypes, Crohn’s (CD) ulcerative colitis (UC), from genome-wide study (GWAS) involving 25,042 cases diagnosis 34,915 controls. Summarized data psoriasis were obtained different GWAS which...

The aim of our study was to investigate differences in whole brain connectivity at different levels between drug-naïve individuals with early Parkinson's disease (PD) and healthy controls (HCs). Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging data were collected from 47 patients early-stage, PD 50 HCs. Functional analyzed the integrity, network, edge levels; UPDRS-III, MMSE, MOCA, HAMA, HAMD scores, reflecting symptoms PD, for further regression analysis. Compared age-matched HCs,...
