摘要
背景以往的观察性研究显示,虚弱与腰背痛之间存在潜在的密切双向关系。为了研究虚弱与腰背痛之间的潜在因果关系,我们进行了双向双样本孟德尔随机分析(MR)研究。有关虚弱指数(FI)和枸杞多糖的遗传数据来自公开的全基因组关联研究(GWAS)。研究采用了各种 MR 方法,如反方差加权(IVW)、加权中位数和 MR-Egger,以评估因果关系。结果遗传预测的较高 FI(IVW,比值比 [OR] = 1.66,95% CI 1.17-2.36,p = 4.92E-03)与较高的枸杞痛风险相关。至于反方向,枸杞痛的遗传易感性与较高的 FI 有一致的关联(IVW,OR = 1.13,95% CI 1.07-1.19,p = 2.67E-05)。各种磁共振技术和敏感性分析的结果表明了我们研究结果的稳健性。
Causal associations between frailty and low back pain: a bidirectional two-sample mendelian randomization study
Background
Previous observational studies have revealed a potentially robust bidirectional relationship between frailty and low back pain (LBP). However, the precise causal relationship remains unclear.
Methods
To examine the potential causal association between frailty and LBP, we conducted bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization analysis (MR) study. Genetic data on frailty index (FI) and LBP were acquired from publicly available genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Various MR methodologies were utilized, such as inverse variance weighting (IVW), weighted median, and MR-Egger, to evaluate causality. Additionally, sensitivity analyses were conducted to evaluate the robustness of the findings.
Results
Genetically predicted higher FI (IVW, odds ratio [OR] = 1.66, 95% CI 1.17–2.36, p = 4.92E-03) was associated with a higher risk of LBP. As for the reverse direction, genetic liability to LBP showed consistent associations with a higher FI (IVW, OR = 1.13, 95% CI 1.07–1.19, p = 2.67E-05). The outcomes from various MR techniques and sensitivity analyses indicate the robustness of our findings.
Conclusion
Our research findings provide additional evidence bolstering the bidirectional causal relationship between frailty and LBP.
