Abstract excerpt
Introduction: Introduction: bone mineral density (BMD) is strongly associated with the risk of osteoporosis and fractures. Furthermore, dietary tea consumption also has a great impact on the variation in BMD. The pathway mechanisms from tea consumption to BMD are not well known. Therefore, we applied a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) approach in an attempt to explore the causality between tea consumption...
