Abstract excerpt
This study employed a bidirectional 2-step, two-sample Mendelian randomization approach to investigate the causal relationships between ferroptosis-related genes and juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) and to explore the mediating role of immune cells. Ferroptosis genes were identified from the deCODE database and matched with protein quantitative trait locus data as exposures to evaluate their causal effects on...
