Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Evidence suggests that type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) may protect from abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). However, it is unclear whether a causal relationship exists between these 2 conditions and, if so, whether it remains consistent among racial groups. METHODS: Cross-ethnic Mendelian randomization (MR) was used to examine the causal relationships between T2DM, metabolic traits, and AAA. Inverse...
