The joint-brain axis: evidence from a Mendelian randomization study of osteoarthritis and cortical structure
2024-03-13
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common joint disease that may affect brain function via a joint-brain axis, but its causal impact on brain cortical structures is unclear. Method We used Mendelian randomization (MR), a method that leverages genetic variants as natural experiments, to examine the effects of OA, including knee and hip OA, on cortical surface area (SA) and thickness (...
