The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been a major challenge to global health and financial burden. Little is known regarding the possible causal effects of COVID-19 on macro- micro-structures human brain. To determine links between susceptibility, hospitalization, severity brain imaging-derived phenotypes (IDPs). Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses were performed investigate effect three exposures (SARS-CoV-2 infection, hospitalized COVID-19, critical COVID-19) structure employing summary datasets genome-wide association studies. In terms cortical phenotypes, hospitalization due was associated with decrease in surface area (SA) cortex (β= -624.77, 95% CI: -1227.88 -21.66, p = 0.042). At regional level, SARS-CoV-2 infection found have nominally thickness (TH) postcentral region -0.004, -0.007 -0.001, 0.01), as well eight other IDPs.

Abstract Previous studies have observed a significant comorbidity between Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and some other neuropsychiatric disorders. However, the mechanistic connections disorders AD are not well understood. We conducted Mendelian randomization analysis to appraise potential influences of 18 neurodegenerative on AD. found that four causally associated with increased risk for AD, including bipolar disorder (BD) (OR: 1.09), migraine schizophrenia 1.05), Parkinson’s (PD) 1.07), while attention-deficit/hyperactivity (ADHD) was decreased 0.80). In case amyotrophic lateral sclerosis 1.04) Tourette’s syndrome there suggestive evidence their causal effects Our study shows genetic components predisposing BD, migraine, schizophrenia, PD may promote development ADHD be reduced The treatments aimed at alleviating diseases earlier onset also influence AD-related cognitive decline, which is typically later in life.

Objective: We aimed to evaluate bidirectional genetic relationships between posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and COVID-19. Methods: investigated potential causal associations PTSD two COVID-19 conditions (COVID-19 hospitalization SARS-CoV-2 infection) via Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses. Three genome-wide association study (GWAS) summary datasets were used in the study, including (N = 174,659), infection 2,597,856), 2,095,324). performed a literature-based analysis uncover molecular pathways connecting Results: found that exerts effect on (odds ratio (OR): 1.10, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.00–1.21, p 0.048) hospitalized (OR: 1.34, CI: 1.07–1.67, 0.001). However, both not associated with risk of PTSD. Pathway revealed several immunity-related genes may link Conclusions: Our suggests was increased risks for susceptibility severity.

However, little is known about the connection between ADHD/ASD post-traumatic stress (PTSD). This study aimed to investigate genetic associations these disorders. Methods Genetic correlation analysis was used examine components shared ADHD (38 691 cases 275 986 controls), ASD (18 381 27 969 controls) PTSD (23 212 151 447 controls). Two-sample Mendelian randomization analyses were employed explore bidirectional causal relationships PTSD.
