Résumé
The inconsistency in conclusions from early observational studies has sparked our interest in elucidating the relationship between lipid levels and susceptibility to hyperemesis gravidarum (HG). This study wishes to employed Mendelian randomization analysis to investigate the causal relationship between low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and HG. We employed Tow-Sample MR analysis to investigate the causal associations between LDL-C and HG. Specific variables were selected from GWAS database for MR analysis, using single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) as our instruments. The threshold for significant SNPs as genetic instruments has been set at 5 × 10 Our MR results identified the effect of genetically predicted increased LDL-C levels on increased genetic susceptibility to HG ( This study may have provided evidence of genetically predicted increased LDL-C levels on increased genetic susceptibility to HG. Appropriate lowering LDL-C levels may serve as a preventive and treatment measure for HG.
