Investigating the causal links between inflammatory cytokines and scoliosis through bidirectional Mendelian randomization analysis
This study provides evidence of a significant causal relationship between RETN and scoliosis, emphasizing its potential as a therapeutic target. These findings contribute to understanding scoliosis pathogenesis and pave the way for future research on inflammation-related pathways and therapies.
