Association between psychiatric disorders and intracranial aneurysms: evidence from Mendelian randomization analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Several studies have explored the relationship between intracranial aneurysms and psychiatric disorders; nevertheless, the causal connection remains ambiguous. This study aimed to evaluate the causal link between intracranial aneurysms and specific psychiatric disorders.

Methods

A two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis was conducted utilizing aggregated genome-wide association study (GWAS) data from the International Stroke Genetics Association for Intracranial Aneurysms (IAs), unruptured Intracranial Aneurysm (uIA), and aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage (aSAH). Psychiatric disorder data, encompassing Schizophrenia (SCZ), Bipolar Disorder (BD), and Panic Disorder (PD), were sourced from the Psychiatric Genomics Consortium (PGC), while Cognitive Impairmen
