Serum Uric Acid Level and Multiple Sclerosis: A Mendelian Randomization Study
Previous observational studies have shown that the serum uric acid (UA) level is decreased in persons with multiple sclerosis (MS). We used the two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) method to determine whether the serum UA level is causally associated with the risk of MS. We screened 26 single-nuc...
