Abstract excerpt
Although observational studies have revealed a link between frailty and serum micronutrient levels, it remains unclear whether these 2 states are directly connected. Thus, Mendelian randomization (MR) was used to investigate the causal relationship between frailty and blood micronutrient levels. Summary-level data for 15 blood micronutrients (copper, selenium, zinc, calcium, iron, magnesium, potassium, folate,...
