Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Recent omic studies prioritised several drug targets associated with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) severity. However, little evidence was provided to systematically estimate the effect of drug targets on COVID-19 severity in multiple ancestries. METHODS: In this study, we applied Mendelian randomization (MR) and colocalization approaches to understand the putative causal effects of 16,059...
