摘要:


文题释义:

孟德尔随机化:是一种基于遗传变量来评估风险因素与预后之间因果关系的新方法。与传统的统计方法不同,该方法可以显著减少潜在的混杂因素,并提供对结果的复杂解释。
骨关节炎:是以关节慢性疼痛、僵硬、肿胀等为主要临床表现的一类退行性病变,是关节炎中最为常见的一种形式。


背景:观察性研究表明,他汀类药物可能对骨关节炎(包括膝骨关节炎和髋骨关节炎)具有保护作用,然而他汀类药物与骨关节炎风险之间的关联尚未完全明确。

目的:利用大规模人群全基因组关联研究(GWAS)的汇总数据,通过孟德尔随机化分析探究他汀类药物与骨关节炎风险之间的关联。
方法:他汀类药物相关的单核苷酸多态性数据来自FinnGen最新第9版数据库,骨关节炎、膝骨关节炎和髋骨关节炎数据来自IEU Open GWAS、英国生物库和关节炎研究英国骨性关节炎遗传学(ArcOGEN)数据库。逆方差加权法为评估因果效应的主要分析方法。加权中位数法、简单中位数法、加权中值方法和MR-Egger回归用于补充说明。以比值比和95%CI评价他汀类药物与骨关节炎、膝骨关节炎和髋骨关节炎风险之间的因果关系。其次进行敏感性分析来验证结果的可靠性,使用Cochran’ s Q检验异质性,MR-Egger-intercept检验是否存在水平多效性,留一法分析确定是否具有潜在影响的单核苷酸多态性等。

结果与结论:①逆方差加权法结果表明,遗传预测的他汀类药物与骨关节炎(OR=0.998,95%CI:0.996-0.999,P=0.01)、膝骨关节炎(OR=0.964,95%CI:0.940-0.989,P=0.005)和髋骨关节炎(OR=0.928,95%CI:0.901-0.955,P=4.28×10-7)风险之间存在负向因果关系;②MR-Egger-intercept分析未检测到潜在的水平多效性(骨关节炎:P=0.658;膝骨关节炎:P=0.600;髋骨关节炎:P=0.141);③研究结果为观察性研究所述的他汀类药物降低骨关节炎、膝骨关节炎和髋骨关节炎风险提供了证据,他汀类药物治疗骨关节炎的具体机制需要进一步研究。

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Observational studies have suggested that statins may have a protective effect against osteoarthritis, including knee osteoarthritis and hip osteoarthritis. However, the association between statins and the risk of osteoarthritis remains unclear.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between statins and the risk of osteoarthritis through Mendelian randomization analysis using summary data from large-scale population-based genome-wide association studies (GWAS). 
METHODS: Firstly, single nucleotide polymorphism data related to statins were obtained from the latest 9th edition of the FinnGen database, while data of osteoarthritis, knee osteoarthritis and hip osteoarthritis were obtained from the IEU Open GWAS, UK Biobank, and ArcOGEN (Genetics of Osteoarthritis) databases, respectively. The inverse variance weighted method was used as the primary analysis approach to evaluate the causal effects. The weighted median method, simple median method, weighted mode-based method, and MR-Egger regression were used as supplementary analyses. The causal relationship between statins and the risk of osteoarthritis, knee osteoarthritis and hip osteoarthritis was assessed using odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). Sensitivity analyses were conducted to validate the reliability of the results, including the Cochran’s Q test for heterogeneity and the MR-Egger-intercept test for horizontal pleiotropy, as well as leave-one-out analysis to identify potentially influential single nucleotide polymorphisms.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The inverse variance weighted analysis demonstrated a negative causal relationship between genetically predicted statins and the risk of osteoarthritis (OR=0.998, 95% CI: 0.996-0.999, P=0.01), knee osteoarthritis (OR=0.964, 95% CI: 0.940-0.989, P=0.005), and hip osteoarthritis (OR=0.928, 95% CI: 0.901-0.955, P=4.28×10-7). MR-Egger intercept analysis did not detect potential horizontal pleiotropy (osteoarthritis: P=0.658; knee osteoarthritis: P=0.600; hip osteoarthritis: P=0.141). The results of this study provide evidence that statins reduce the risks of osteoarthritis, knee osteoarthritis and hip osteoarthritis as described in observational studies. Further research is needed to explore the specific mechanisms of statin treatment for osteoarthritis.
