Using genetics to understand the role of kidney function in COVID-19: a mendelian randomization study.

BMC nephrology - 13 Nov 2021

Zhao Jie V, Schooling C Mary

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Kidney dysfunction occurs in severe COVID-19, and is a predictor of COVID-19 mortality. Whether kidney dysfunction causes severe COVID-19, and hence is a target of intervention, or whether it is a symptom, is unclear because conventional observational studies are open to confounding. To obtain unconfounded estimates, we used Mendelian randomization to examine the role of kidney function in severe...
