Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Fetuin-A is associated with body mass index (BMI) as well as components of the metabolic syndrome. However, it is unclear if fetuin-A affects BMI or the other way around. We therefore assessed the causal association between fetuin-A and BMI or vice versa, utilizing a bidirectional Mendelian randomization approach. DESIGN AND METHODS: This was a study of 2558 subjects from the Electricity Generating...
