Abstract
Summary of the research findings
Introduction: The comorbidity between major depressive disorder (MDD) and coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19) related traits have long been identified in clinical settings, but their shared genetic foundation and causal relationships are unknown. Here, we investigated the genetic mechanisms behind COVID-19 related traits and MDD using the cross-trait meta-analysis, and evaluated the underlying causal relationships between MDD and 3 different COVID-19 outcomes (severe COVID-19, hospitalized COVID-19, and COVID-19 infection).
65,075 European ancestry MDD cases, 8,779 European ancestry severe COVID-19 cases, 1,234,427 European ancestry controls
