BACKGROUND:Osteonecrosis due to drugs is a serious adverse reaction occurring after the application of such drugs.Increasing evidence suggests that the gut microbiota composition is associated with osteonecrosis due to drugs.However,the causal relationship of the gut microbiota to osteonecrosis due to drugs is still unclear. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the potential causal relationship between the gut microbiota and the risk of osteonecrosis due to drugs using the Mendelian randomization method. METHODS:A two-sample Mendelian randomization study was performed using the summary statistics of gut microbiota from the largest available genome-wide association study meta-analysis(n=13 266)conducted by the MiBioGen consortium as well as the summary statistics of osteonecrosis due to drugs obtained from the FinnGen consortium R9 release data(264 cases and 377 013 controls).Inverse variance weighted,MR-Egger,weighted median,weighted model and simple model were used to examine the causal association between gut microbiota and osteonecrosis due to drugs.Sensitivity analysis was used to test whether the results of the Mendelian randomization analysis were reliable.Reverse Mendelian randomization analysis was performed on all the bacteria as an outcome for effect analysis and sensitivity analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Inverse variance weighted estimates suggested that Lentisphaerae(phylum),Lentisphaeria(class),Melainabacteria(class),Gastranaerophilales(order),Rhodospirillales(order),Victivallales(order)and Bifidobacterium(genus)had protective causal effects on osteonecrosis due to drugs.Methanobacteria(class),Bacillales(order),Methanobacteriaceae(family),Lachnospiraceae(family),Methanobacteriales(order),Holdemania(genus),Holdemania(UCG010 group)(genus),Odoribacter(genus)and Tyzzerella3(genus)had negative causal effects on osteonecrosis due to drugs.According to the results of reverse Mendelian randomization analysis,Clostridiaceae1(family),Peptostreptococcaceae(family),Streptococcaceae(family),Clostridiumsensustricto1(genus)and Streptococcus(genus)showed negative causal effects on osteonecrosis due to drugs.However,Eisenbergiella(genus)showed protective causal effects on osteonecrosis due to drugs.None of the bidirectional sensitivity analysis revealed heterogeneity or horizontal pleiotropy.When gut microbiota were used as exposure and osteonecrosis due to drugs as the outcome,Mendelian randomization analysis found that seven bacterial traits were positively correlated to osteonecrosis due to drugs,nine bacterial traits were negatively related to osteonecrosis due to drugs.When osteonecrosis due to drugs were used as exposure and gut microbiota as the outcome,reverse Mendelian randomization analysis found a negative correlated relationship with five bacterial traits and a positive causal relationship with one bacterial trait.By changing the diversity and composition of gut microbiota,it is expected to improve the incidence and prognosis of osteonecrosis due to drugs,providing new ideas for the study of orthopedic diseases.

BACKGROUND:Osteonecrosis is a common refractory disease in clinical practice,and observational studies have suggested that micronutrients may have a prognostic role in osteonecrosis.However,the specific causal association between micronutrients and osteonecrosis is not known. OBJECTIVE:To explore the causal association between micronutrients and osteonecrosis by Mendelian randomization using summary data from a large population-based genome-wide association study(GWAS)for clinical diagnosis and treatment. METHODS:The required exposure and outcome data(calcium,magnesium,iron,vitamin E,carotenoids,retinol&osteonecrosis)were extracted from the IEU OpenGWAS database,GWAS catalog database,and FinnGen database.Data were analyzed by bidirectional Mendelian randomization with inverse-variance weighted as the primary study method,and weighted median method,simple mode method,weighted mode method,and MR-Egger regression to complement the results.The reliability of the data was then verified through sensitivity analyses. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The results found a positive correlation between serum iron concentration and osteonecrosis,while no correlation was found for other micronutrients.There was no reverse causality in all the data.(2)The results of sensitivity analysis showed a robust causality.(3)By Mendelian randomization method,this study provided evidence of causality between serum iron concentration and osteonecrosis,and understanding the causality of micronutrient elements on osteonecrosis can help in the clinical diagnosis and treatment of osteonecrosis,which is of great clinical significance.
