Abstract excerpt
Previous research has shown a strong correlation between sepsis and brain structure. However, whether this relationship represents a causality remains elusive. In this study, we employed Mendelian randomization (MR) to probe the associations of genetically predicted sepsis and sepsis-related death with structural changes in specific brain regions. Genome-wide association study (GWAS) data for sepsis phenotypes...
