Abstract excerpt

AIMS: Inverse relationships have been described between the largely genetically determined levels of serum/plasma lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)], type 2 diabetes (T2D) and fasting insulin. Here, we aimed to evaluate the nature of these relationships with respect to causality. METHODS: We tested whether we could replicate the recent negative findings on causality between Lp(a) and T2D by employing the Mendelian...
