- - This study aimed to investigate the causal links between plasma proteins and intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD), as IVDD affects disability and quality of life globally.
- - Using data from an Icelandic population and the FinnGen consortium, researchers found a significant causal association between 47 specific plasma proteins and IVDD, with particular proteins like myoneurin showing strong correlations.
- - The findings highlight that these plasma proteins could serve as valuable biomarkers for predicting IVDD risk, enhancing our understanding of the disease's mechanisms and potential treatment targets.
