Abstract excerpt

AIMS: The causal role of adiposity for several cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) is unclear. Our primary aim was to apply the Mendelian randomization design to investigate the associations of body mass index (BMI) with 13 CVDs and arterial hypertension. We also assessed the roles of fat mass and fat-free mass on the same outcomes. METHODS AND RESULTS: Single-nucleotide polymorphisms associated with BMI and fat mass...
