Abstract:BackgroundPatients with schizophrenia are at a higher risk of developing cancer. However, the causal relationship between schizophrenia and different tumor types remains unclear.MethodsUsing a two-sample, two-way Mendelian randomization method, we used publicly available genome-wide association analysis (GWAS) aggregate data to study the causal relationship between schizophrenia and different cancer risk factors. These tumors included lung adenocarcinoma, lung squamous cell carcinoma, small-cell lung cancer, g… Show more
