**Significant results were described as results from consistency judgments, pleiotropy tests, and leave-one-out analysis. Consistency judgment should meet all of the following judgment criteria: (1) IVW-derived p value< 7.35×10-4; (2) WM-derived p value< 0.05; (3) WM and MR Egger derived β were in the same direction as the IVW. *Nominal results were defined as IVW-derived p value< 0.05. Cochran’s Q test derived P value and MR-Egger intercept test derived P value< 0.05 is significant. “Yes” referred to result that causality was not driven by a specific SNP after leave-one-out analysis. IL-6, interleukin 6; IL-6Rα, interleukin-6 receptor subunit alpha; SA, surface area; TH, thickness. The above brain cortical structure measurements were with global weighted.
