Abstract excerpt
Observational studies have reported that gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVD); however, the causal inferences between them remain unknown. We conducted a Mendelian randomization (MR) study to estimate the causal associations between GERD and 10 CVD outcomes, as well as 14 cardiovascular risk factors. We used summary statistics from genome-wide association...
