Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor and Ischemic Heart Disease Risk: A Mendelian Randomization Study.

Journal of the American Heart Association - 1 Aug 2017

Au Yeung Shiu Lun, Lam Hugh Simon Hung San, Schooling C Mary

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has angiogenic and possibly proatherosclerotic properties. Observationally it is positively associated with cardiovascular disease, although these observations could be confounded or due to reverse causation. We assessed ischemic heart disease (IHD) risk by genetically predicted VEGF, ie, using Mendelian randomization. METHODS AND RESULTS: Single nucleotide...
