This study aimed to evaluate the causal link between intracranial aneurysms and specific psychiatric disorders.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>A two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis was conducted utilizing aggregated genome-wide association study (GWAS) data from the International Stroke Genetics Association for Intracranial Aneurysms (IAs), unruptured Intracranial Aneurysm (uIA), and aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage (aSAH). Psychiatric disorder data, encompassing Schizophrenia (SCZ), Bipolar Disorder (BD), and Panic Disorder (PD), were sourced from the Psychiatric Genomics Consortium (PGC), while Cognitive Impairment (CI) data, comprising Cognitive Function (CF) and Cognitive Performance (CP), were obtained from IEU OpenGWAS publications. Causal effects were evaluated using inverse variance weighted (IVW), MR-Egger, and weighted median methods, with the robustness of findings assessed via sensitivity analyses employing diverse methodological approaches.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Our MR analysis indicated no discernible causal link between intracranial aneurysm (IA) and an elevated susceptibility to psychiatric disorders. However, among individuals with genetically predisposed unruptured intracranial aneurysms (uIA), there was a modest reduction in the risk of SCZ (IVW odds ratio [OR]\u2009=\u20090.95, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.92\u20130.98, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.0002). Similarly, IAs also exhibited a moderate reduction in SCZ risk (OR\u2009=\u20090.92, 95% CI 0.86\u20130.99, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.02). Nevertheless, limited evidence was found to support a causal association between intracranial aneurysms and the risk of the other three psychiatric disorders.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Our findings furnish compelling evidence suggesting a causal influence of intracranial aneurysms on psychiatric
