Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: This study aims to elucidate the causal relationships between 1400 blood metabolites and pain related to temporomandibular disorders (TMD) using Mendelian Randomization (MR) analysis. METHODS: Utilizing data from genome-wide association studies (GWAS), our analysis was conducted with R software using the "TwoSampleMR" package. The primary method applied was Inverse Variance Weighted (IVW) analysis,...
