Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Preclinical studies have suggested that Annexin A1 and Annexin A2 act as anti-inflammatory agents, slowing the progression of atherosclerosis and further potentially reducing the risk of ischemic stroke. Since the causality of Annexins and ischemic stroke remains uncertain, this study aimed to investigate the causal effects of both using a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) method. METHODS: The...
