Abstract Introduction While adiposity is an established risk factor for incident ischemic stroke, its influence on functional recovery after stroke is uncertain. We leveraged Mendelian randomization (MR) to examine the causal effects of body mass index (BMI) and waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) on post-stroke motor, cognitive, and global recovery.
