Abstract excerpt
Major depressive disorder (MDD) and autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD) frequently co-occur, yet the genetic factors underlying their comorbidity remain unclear. We performed a population-matched cohort study from the UK Biobank to evaluate the phenotypic association between MDD and AITD. Genetic correlation, causal relationships, and pleiotropic loci/genes shared between the diseases were assessed based on common...
