Abstract excerpt
Objective: Observational studies have shown the association between iron status and osteoarthritis (OA). However, due to difficulties of determining sequential temporality, their causal association is still elusive. Based on the summary data of genome-wide association studies (GWASs) of a large-scale population, this study explored the genetic causal association between iron status and OA. Methods: First, we took...
