Abstract excerpt
This study investigates the causal relationships between brain imaging-derived phenotypes (IDPs) and epilepsy risk by integrating Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis and radiomics-based validation using brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data. Two-sample MR analysis, leveraging genome-wide association study (GWAS) data, revealed that higher fractional anisotropy (FA) in the right posterior thalamic...
