Genetically predicted vitamin K levels and risk of osteoarthritis: Mendelian randomization study

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a progressive disease for which there is no disease modifying therapy. Vitamin K levels and vitamin K antagonism have been associated with risk and progression of OA which may have direct implications for clinical management, but these observational findings are susceptible to confounding. We aimed to estimate the causal association between vitamin K and OA risk using Mendelian randomisation (MR). We used data from the...
