Genetic effect of thyroid function-related diseases on acute respiratory distress syndrome: a Mendelian randomization study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Previous studies have shown an association between acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and thyroid function. However, their causal relationship remains unspecified. Therefore, this study aims to explore the causal relationship between ARDS and thyroid function-related diseases with Mendelian Randomization (MR) analysis.

Methods

ARDS dataset finn-b-J10_ARDS, finn-b-E4_THYROID dataset of disorders of the thyroid gland (DTG) and finn-b-E4_HYTHYNAS of hypothyroidism were acquired from public database. In univariate MR (UVMR), causal effects between DTG, hypothyroidism and ARDS were investigated using 5 types of algorithms, and reliability was validated by sensitivity analysis. Moreover, multivariate MR (MVMR), enrichment and interaction network analyses of gene
