Abstract:Objective
This study was conducted to investigate the bidirectional causal relationship between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and temporomandibular disorders (TMD).
Methods
Using an online pooled dataset of genome-wide association studies (GWAS), a two-sample bi-directional Mendelian randomization (MR) method was implemented. Inverse variance weighting was used as the primary analyses approach, and other methods of MR Egger, weighted median method, MR-Egger, Simple mode… Show more
