Screen Time and Chronic Pain Health: Mendelian Randomization Study
Our findings demonstrate an association between screen time and various aspects of chronic pain. The CEP170 gene might contribute to the shared biological mechanism between time spent using computer and MCP risk. However, due to the absence of robust MVMR results, the potential influence of confounding factors cannot be ruled out.
