Exploring the Impact of Systemic Inflammatory Regulators on Rosacea Risk: A Bidirectional Mendelian Randomization Analysis by Xue Q, Pan JP, Qian D, Ji J, Fei LY, Yao S, Tan X, Fan WG

“…This study employed a two-sample bidirectional Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis to investigate the causal links between systemic inflammatory regulators and rosacea.Methods: Data on 41 cytokines and growth factors were analyzed from a genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analysis involving 8293 individuals and genetic data from the FinnGen database, comprising 1195 rosacea cases and 211,139 controls. The principal inverse variance weighting (IVW) method was used to assess causal relationships, with sensitivity analyses, including heterogeneity and horizontal pleiotropy assessments, conducted to ensure result robustness.Results: MR analysis revealed that decreased expression of Stem Cell Factor (SCF), Macrophage Inflammatory Protein-1β (MIP-1β), and Monocyte Chemotactic Protein-1 (MCP-1) was associated with increased rosacea risk (OR = 1.54, 95% CI = 1.05– 2.26, p = 0.026). …”
