A Mendelian Randomization-Based Causal Investigation on Bacterial Infection-Related Genes and Neurodegenerative Diseases.

Neurodegenerative diseases remain the most prevalent and unsolved health problems in human society, especially Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD).

In the wake of the association between pandemics and a growing number of neurodegeneration patients, there has been growing speculation that infections are linked to AD and PD.
