Impact of body composition on COVID-19 susceptibility and severity: A two-sample multivariable Mendelian randomization study.

Metabolism: clinical and experimental - 1 May 2021

Freuer Dennis, Linseisen Jakob, Meisinger Christa

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: Recent studies suggested obesity to be a possible risk factor for COVID-19 disease in the wake of the coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) infection. However, the causality and especially the role of body fat distribution in this context is still unclear. Thus, using a univariable as well as multivariable two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) approach, we investigated for the first time the causal impact of...
