Abstract excerpt
Objective: Haematopoiesis was shown to regulate bone metabolism in in vivo studies. However, whether haematopoiesis has causal effects on bone health has never been investigated in humans. We aimed to evaluate the causal relationships of blood traits with bone mineral density (BMD) and fracture. Design and methods: Using two-sample Mendelian randomization, causal relationship of 29 blood traits with estimated BMD...
