Mendelian Randomization Causal Analysis Adiposity as a cause of cardiovascular disease: a Mendelian randomization study
Background: Adiposity, as indicated by body mass index (BMI), has been associated with risk of cardiovascular diseases in epidemiological studies. We aimed to investigate if these associations are causal, using Mendelian randomization (MR) methods. Methods: The associations of BMI with cardiovascular outcomes [coronary heart disease (CHD), heart failure and ischaemic stroke], and associations o...
متن کاملGWAS-based Mendelian Randomization Path Analysis
GMRP can perform analyses of Mendelian randomization (MR),correlation, path of causal variables onto disease of interest and SNP annotation analysis. MR includes SNP selection with given criteria and regression analysis of causal variables on the disease to generate beta values of causal variables on the disease. Using the beta vectors, GMRP performs correlation and path analyses to construct p...
متن کاملCausal relationship between obesity and serum testosterone status in men: A bi-directional mendelian randomization analysis
CONTEXT Obesity in men is associated with low serum testosterone and both are associated with several diseases and increased mortality. OBJECTIVES Examine the direction and causality of the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and serum testosterone. DESIGN Bi-directional Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis on prospective cohorts. SETTING Five cohorts from Denmark, Germany and Swe...
متن کامل5. Mendelian randomization
Associations between modifiable exposures and disease seen in observational epidemiology are sometimes confounded and thus misleading, despite our best efforts to improve the design and analysis of studies. Mendelian randomization, the random assortment of genes from parents to offspring that occurs during gamete formation and conception provides one method for assessing the causal nature of so...
متن کاملMendelian randomization in family data
The phrase "mendelian randomization" has become associated with the use of genetic polymorphisms to uncover causal relationships between phenotypic variables. The statistical methods useful in mendelian randomization are known as instrumental variable techniques. We present an approach to instrumental variable estimation that is useful in family data and is robust to the use of weak instruments...
