Despite known associations between hypothyroidism and various cancers, the causal link between hypothyroidism and GC and potential mediators of this relationship remains unclear. This study aimed to clarify these relationships using Mendelian randomization (MR) .  \nMethods: Utilizing genetic variant information from the FinnGen and MRC Integrative Epidemiology Unit open genome-wide association studies (GWAS) databases, we conducted univariable and multivariable MR analyses to explore the causal relationship between hypothyroidism and GC risk. The analysis was adjusted for confounders such as BMI, smoking status, and alcohol intake, and included mediator MR analysis to examine the role of high cholesterol.  \nResults: We identified a significant inverse association between hypothyroidism and GC risk (OR = 0.93, 95% CI= 0.89–0.98, P = 0.003), with no evidence of reverse causation or pleiotropy. Adjustments for Helicobacter pylori infection weakened this association. Mediator analysis highlighted high cholesterol levels, chronic hepatitis B infection, and diabetes/endocrine disease status as significant mediators of the protective effect of hypothyroidism on GC risk.  \nConclusion: Our findings suggest that hypothyroidism may confer a protective effect against GC, mediated in part by high cholesterol and other factors. These results underscore the importance of thyroid function and metabolic health in GC risk, offering new insights for preventive strategies and highlighting the need for further research into these complex associations.  \nKEYWORDS  \ngastric cancer, hypothyroidism, Mendelian randomization, genetic variants, causal analysis  \nFrontiers in Endocrinology 01 [frontiersin.org](frontiersin.org)  \n1 Introduction  \nGastric cancer ranks as the fifth most common cancer and the third most common cause o","cbCaiuJVozBKH4i5","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiuJVozBKH4i5","pdf",1155329,"English","# Introduction\n# Methods\n## Genetic instruments and MR analyses\n## Confounder and mediator evaluation\n# Results\n# Discussion\n# Conclusion","[{\"question\":\"What was the main aim of the study?\",\"answer\":\"To determine whether hypothyroidism causally affects gastric cancer risk and to identify potential mediators involved in this relationship.\"},{\"question\":\"Which method was used to infer causality?\",\"answer\":\"The study applied univariable and multivariable Mendelian randomization using genetic variant data, along with mediator MR analysis.\"},{\"question\":\"What did the results show about the relationship between hypothyroidism and gastric cancer risk?\",\"answer\":\"Hypothyroidism showed a significant inverse association with gastric cancer risk (OR = 0.93, 95% CI 0.89–0.98, P = 0.003), and adjustments for Helicobacter pylori weakened this association.\"}]","Causal link between hypothyroidism and gastric cancer risk - insights gained through multivariable Mendelian randomization and mediation analysis | PDF",1790041572]
