Abstract:Background:
Numerous studies have reported brain functional network impairments in individuals with psychiatric disorders; however, the causal relationships between the two remain unclear. We aimed to investigate the potential causal relationships between resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rsfMRI) phenotypes and psychiatric disorders via Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis.
Method:
Employing a bidirectional two-sample MR analysis approach, this study assessed the associations between 191 … Show more
