The association between BMI and mortality using offspring BMI as an indicator of own BMI: large intergenerational mortality study

22 Dec 2009

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: To obtain valid estimates of the association between body mass index (BMI) and mortality by using offspring BMI as an instrumental variable for own BMI. DESIGN: Cohort study based on record linkage, with 50 years of follow-up for mortality. Associations of offspring BMI with all cause and cause specific maternal and paternal mortality were estimated as hazard ratios per standard deviation of offspring...
