1 Jun 2022
Abstract excerpt
Purpose: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third-most frequently diagnosed cancer globally. Studies have linked low serum albumin with increased risk of CRC, but the causal nature of the association remains unclear. In the present study, we explored the potential causal relationship using bidirectional Mendelian randomization (MR). Methods: Instrumental variants for albumin were obtained from a genome-wide...
