Overview of the present Mendelian randomization study. Assumption 1, genetic variants are strong correlated with exposure; Assumption 2, genetic variants are independent of confounding factors associated with exposure and outcome; Assumption 3, genetic variants influence outcome only through the exposure; TMDs, temporomandibular disorders; BMI, body mass index; WM, weighted median; LOO, leave-one-out; SNPs, single nucleotide polymorphisms
