Abstract excerpt

Introduction: Kidney stone disease (KSD) is a common urological disorder with an increasing incidence worldwide. Previous observational studies have reported an association between body mass index (BMI) and KSD; however, the causal relationship remains uncertain, particularly in Asian populations. This study aimed to investigate the causal effect of BMI on KSD risk in Taiwanese individuals using a Mendelian...
