Research Article: The causal effect of cytokine cycling levels on osteoarthritis: a bidirectional Mendelian randomized study

Date Published: 2024-01-11

Introduction:
Objective: Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent joint disease globally, serving as a primary cause of pain and disability. However, the pathological processes underlying OA remain incompletely understood. Several studies have noted an association between cytokines and OA, yet the causal link between them remains ambiguous. This study aims to identify cytokines potentially causally related to OA using Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis, informing early clinical diagnosis and treatment decisions.
