Pleiotropy-robust Mendelian randomization.

International journal of epidemiology - 1 Aug 2018

van Kippersluis Hans, Rietveld Cornelius A

Abstract excerpt

Background: The potential of Mendelian randomization studies is rapidly expanding due to: (i) the growing power of genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analyses to detect genetic variants associated with several exposures; and (ii) the increasing availability of these genetic variants in large-scale surveys. However, without a proper biological understanding of the pleiotropic working of genetic variants, a...
