Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Alterations in bone metabolism may play a significant role in the early stages of femoral head necrosis, yet the causal relationship remains unclear. This study utilizes a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) approach to explore the genetic causal links between biochemical markers of bone metabolism, bone mineral density, and the risk of femoral head necrosis. METHODS: This study utilizes publicly...
