Abstract:BackgroundsCurrent observational investigations hint at a potential linkage between ankylosing spondylitis and cardiovascular wellness. However, the nature of this causality remains to be elucidated. Consequently, this study is designed to evaluate the causal interconnection between ankylosing spondylitis and cardiovascular-related conditions utilizing a bidirectional two-sample Mendelian Randomization (MR) methodology.MethodsIn this study, we conducted Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses using genome-wide a… Show more
