Genetic association between adiposity and gout: a Mendelian randomization study.

Rheumatology (Oxford, England) - 1 Dec 2018

Larsson Susanna C, Burgess Stephen, Michaëlsson Karl

Abstract excerpt

Objective: To investigate whether overall obesity (as measured by BMI) and abdominal obesity (as measured by waist-to-hip ratio adjusted for BMI) are associated with gout risk and serum urate concentrations using Mendelian randomization. Methods: Single nucleotide polymorphisms associated with BMI (n = 97) and waist-to-hip ratio adjusted for BMI (n = 49) were analysed for association with gout risk in 2115 gout...
