Abstract excerpt
This study aims to clarify the potential causal effects of dietary antioxidant vitamins on pregnancy outcomes (miscarriage, preterm labor, and birth weight) using Mendelian randomization (MR). Our instrumental variables (IVs) were single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) linked to retinol, vitamin C, carotene, and vitamin E (P < 5×10-6). The summary statistics for miscarriage, preterm labor, and birth weight were...
