ObjectivesObservational studies have shown the association between knee osteoarthritis (KOA) and neurological disorders with alterations in brain imaging-derived phenotypes (BIDPs). This study aimed at investigating whether alterations in brain structure are correlated with the occurrence of KOA. MethodsBased on the summary data from two large scale genome-wide association studies (GWASs), we performed a bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis using single-nucleotide poly...
