Genetically predicted body composition in relation to cardiometabolic traits: a Mendelian randomization study.

European journal of epidemiology - 1 Nov 2021

Abstract excerpt

Fat mass and fat-free mass are found to be associated with different health outcomes in observational studies, but the underlying causality remains unclear. We aimed to investigate the causal relationships between body composition and cardiometabolic traits using a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) approach. Independent genetic variants associated with body fat mass, fat-free mass, and fat percentage in UK...
