ABSTRACT
Background:
To clarify the controversy between inflammatory or autoimmune skin diseases and thyroid diseases, we performed two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses.Participants:
Genetic data on factors associated with atopic dermatitis (AD, n=40,835), seborrheic dermatitis (SD, n=339,277), acne (n=363,927), rosacea (n=299,421), urticaria (n=374,758), psoriasis (n=373,338), psoriasis vulgaris (n=369,830), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE, n=14,267), vitiligo (n=353,348), alopecia areata (AA, n=361,822), pemphigus (n=375,929), bullous pemphigoid (BP, n=376,274), systemic sclerosis (SSc, n=376,864), localized scleroderma (LS, n=353,449), hypothyroidism (n=314,995 or n=337,159), and hyperthyroidism (n=281,683 or n=337,159) were derived from genome-wide association summary statistics of European ancestry. Mainmeasures:
The inverse variance weighted method was employed to obtain the causal estimates of inflammatory or autoimmune skin diseases on the risk of thyroid diseases, complemented by MR-Egger, weighted median, and MR-pleiotropy residual sum and outlier (MR-PRESSO). Keyresults:
AD, SLE, SD, and psoriasis vulgaris were associated with an increased risk of hypothyroidism, whereas BP was associated with a lower risk of hypothyroidism (all with p < 0.05). The multivariable MR analyses showed that AD (OR = 1.053; 95%CI 1.015-1.092; p = 0.006), SLE (OR = 1.093; 95%CI 1.059-1.127; p < 0.001), and SD (OR = 1.006; 95%CI 1.002-1.010; p = 0.006) independently and predominately contributed to the genetic causal effect on hypothyroidism after adjusting for smoking. The results showed no causal effects of inflammatory or autoimmune skin diseases on hyperthyroidism.Conclusion:
The findings showed a causal effect of AD, SLE, SD on hypothyroidism, but further investigations should be conducted to explore the pathogenic mechanisms underlying these relationships.Palabras clave
