Association of schizophrenia, major depression, and bipolar disorder with sarcopenia-related traits: a bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization study
Abstract:The rising incidence of schizophrenia, depression, bipolar disorder, and other mental illnesses have an association with sarcopenia (SP). Observational studies are susceptible to confounding factors. Mendelian randomization (MR) studies offer a way to mitigate the influence of such factors when assessing causality. The causal connection between schizophrenia, depression, bipolar disorder, and SP was evaluated using inverse-variance weighted (IVW) and other MR methods. Sensitivity analyses were also performed. … Show more
