Abstract excerpt

CONTEXT: The link between C-reactive protein (CRP) and adiposity deserves to be further explored, considering the controversial diabetogenic role of CRP. OBJECTIVE: We explored the potential causal role of CRP on measures of adiposity. DESIGN: We used a Mendelian randomization approach with the CRP and LEPR genes as instrumental variables in a cross-sectional Caucasian population-based study comprising 2526 men...
