Associations of the circulating levels of cytokines with risk of ankylosing spondylitis: a Mendelian randomization study
20 Dec 2023
Abstract excerpt
Background Observational studies have shown that changes in circulating cytokine/growth factor levels occur throughout the initiation and progression of ankylosing spondylitis (AS), yet whether they are etiologic or downstream effects remains unclear. In this study, we performed a summarized-level bidirectional Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis to shed light on the causal relationship between the two. Methods...
