Abstract excerpt
Background: Our goal was to examine the causal link between blood metabolites, their ratios, and the risk of developing proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) from a genetic insight. Methods: Summary-level data about 1400 blood metabolites and their ratios, as well as PDR, were sourced from prior genome-wide association studies (GWAS). A two-sample univariate and multivariate Mendelian randomization (MR)...
