Abstract excerpt
Evidence of a causal link between sclerostin-lowering interventions and ischemic stroke remains uncertain due to the limitations of previous observational studies and the post hoc analyses of randomized trials. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the causal effect of plasma sclerostin abundance on incident ischemic stroke and its subtypes. To do this, we conducted a drug-target Mendelian randomization...
