Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Frailty is an emerging global burden of disease, characterized as an age-related clinical syndrome. Recent studies have suggested a potential link of circulating protein levels with the onset of frailty. This study aims to analyze the potential causal relationships of plasma proteins with frailty using a Mendelian Randomization (MR) study design. METHODS: Associations of plasma proteins with frailty...
