Genetically predicted iron status and life expectancy.

Clinical nutrition (Edinburgh, Scotland) - 1 Apr 2021

Daghlas Iyas, Gill Dipender

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Systemic iron status affects multiple health outcomes, however its net effect on life expectancy is not known. We conducted a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) study to investigate the association of genetically proxied iron status with life expectancy. METHODS: Using genetic data from 48,972 individuals, we identified three genetic variants as instrumental variables for systemic iron...
