Association between obesity, brain atrophy and accelerated brain aging and their genetic mechanisms

2022-12-30

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Objective</h4> To investigate the causal relationship and the underlying biological mechanisms between body mass index (BMI) and grey matter volume (GMV). <h4>Methods</h4> We applied Mendelian randomization analyses utilizing 33,6514 individuals from the UK Biobank cohort to establish the causal relationship between BMI and GMV. We also quantified obesity-related accelerated brain aging using an XGBoost predic...
