Causal linkage between adult height and kidney function: An integrated population-scale observational analysis and Mendelian randomization study

29 Jul 2021

Abstract excerpt

As adult height is linked to various health outcomes, further investigation of its causal effects on kidney function later in life is warranted. This study involved a cross-sectional observational analysis and summary-level Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. First, the observational association between height and estimated GFR determined by creatinine (eGFRcreatinine) or cystatin C (eGFRcystatinC) was...
