Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To elucidate the bidirectional correlation of sarcopenia with coronary heart disease (CHD), as well as to investigate the mediating role of cardiometabolic factors and inflammatory biomarkers, a bidirectional two-sample, two-step Mendelian randomization (MR) study was conducted.
