ABSTRACT Obesity and psychiatric disorders are the leading causes of global morbidity. Epidemiological studies suggest a bidirectional link between higher body mass index (BMI) and mental health outcomes, but the direction of causality remains uncertain due to confounding and reverse causation. We performed a Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis using

MendelR: A One‐Stop R Toolkit for Mendelian Randomization Analysis
ABSTRACT MendelR is a fully automated R package specifically developed for Mendelian randomization (MR) studies, designed to address the technical challenges of causal inference in biomedical research. As a powerful causal inference method, Mendelian randomization can effectively reduce confounding bias in observational studies.

Integrating Long‐Read Nanopore Sequencing for Precision Resolution of Genomic Variants in Dystonia
Abstract Background Although many individuals with dystonia present with features indicative of single‐gene etiologies, obtaining definitive genetic diagnoses can be challenging. Objective We assessed the value of nanopore‐based long‐read sequencing (LRS) in achieving molecular clarification of dystonic syndromes.

LRRK2 as a Potential Disease‐Modifying Target in Sporadic Parkinson's Disease
Abstract A growing understanding of the role that leucine‐rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) plays in Parkinson's disease (PD) supports continued focus on this enzyme as a therapeutic target for PD. Accumulating evidence suggests that there are phenotypic, neuropathologic, and biological similarities between sporadic PD (sPD) and familial forms in which ...

‘What's in a Name?’ Naming Genetically Determined Movement Disorders: Gap and Controversy
Abstract In 2016, the International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society (MDS) Task Force for Genetic Nomenclature in Movement Disorders laid out a new proposal for naming genetically determined movement disorders. This proposal sought to address the difficulties arising from the practical usage of numbered loci (eg, DYT1, DYT2, DYT3, etc.) as names

Abstract The association between alcohol consumption and Parkinson's disease (PD) risk remains unclear, whereas smoking has an inverse relationship with the disease. This study systematically reviewed and meta‐analyzed 16 studies (2014–2024) from PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, MEDLINE, and the Cochrane Library to assess the relationship between ...
