Vitamin D and risk of ankylosing spondylitis: A two-sample mendelian randomization study.

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: To study whether Vitamin D levels are causally associated with ankylosing spondylitis (AS). METHODS: Two-sample Mendelian randomization (TSMR) analysis was performed by employing MR-Egger regression, weighted median (WM1), inverse-variance weighted (IVW), and weight mode (WM2) methods. The odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) was used to evaluate this association. RESULTS: The results...
