The serum metabolite data were obtained from a public database (http://metabolomips.org/gwas/index.php), while the genome-wide association study (GWAS) summary association statistics for tinnitus were obtained from a Finnish database (https://r10.finngen.fi/pheno/H8_TINNITUS). The inverse variance weighting (IVW) method was employed as the primary determination method for MR analysis, with corrections for multiple comparisons made using the false discovery rate (FDR).
