“…Subsequently, several screening steps mentioned above were implemented. Confounding factors, such as smoking (Zhang et al, 2022 ), migraine (Wang et al, 2023 ), frailty (Cai et al, 2023 ), depression (Gill et al, 2019 ), diabetes (Lau et al, 2019 ), body mass index (BMI), and insomnia (Zhang et al, 2023 ), were determined by reviewing the literature. We manually removed 35 SNPs, and a total of 2038 SNPs from 196 taxa were eventually chosen as IVs ( Supplementary Table S2 ).…”
