Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Observational studies have suggested potential correlations between unfavorable lipid profiles and the occurrence of intracranial aneurysms (IAs), proposing that lipid-lowering therapies might curb IA progression and prevent rupture. This study aimed to explore the causal impacts of lipid-reducing strategies on the risk of IAs. METHODS: We employed 3 genetic tools as proxies for our exposures and...
