Abstract excerpt
Although there is an association between abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) and circulating immune cell phenotypes, the exact causal relationship remains unclear. This study aimed to explore the causal relationships between immune cell phenotypes and AAA risk using a bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization approach. Data from genome-wide association studies pertaining to 731 immune cell traits and AAA were...
