Previous studies have suggested potential associations between some dietary factors and oral mucosal lesions (OMLs), however, existing research could be biased due to limited sample size and unaccounted confounding factors. This study aimed to explore the causal relationships between 13 common dietary factors and 3 OMLs using 2-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. Data for the MR analysis were extracted from publicly available genome-wide association study statistics.

Meiotic crossovers promote correct chromosome segregation and the shuffling of genetic diversity. However, the measurement of crossovers remains challenging, impeding our ability to decipher the molecular mechanisms that are necessary for their formation and regulation. Here we demonstrate a novel repurposing of the single-nucleus Assay for Transposase Accessible Chromatin with sequencing (snATAC-seq) as a simple and high-throughput method to identify and characterize meiotic crossovers from haploid testis nuclei.

The cardiac pacemaker activity is formed from multiple interlocking physiological networks, any one of which can generate rhythm. The interlocking is reciprocal so that they automatically replace each other. In such interlocking control systems, the association scores for individual components are necessarily low, even though causation, measured by the electric current carried by the relevant ion channels, is large.

Objective: To evaluate the association between erectile dysfunction (ED) and myocardial infarction (MI) using two sample Mendelian randomization.
Methods: A Mendelian randomization study was conducted using comprehensive data on ED and MI from extensive genome-wide association data. Using inverse variance weighted analysis for causal relationships, and correct for confounding factors using multivariate Mendelian randomization, the potential mediating effects were evaluated as well.
