Estimating the causal effect of hearing loss on Alzheimer’s disease: a Mendelian randomisation study

2020-02-26

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Hearing loss has been identified as one of the most important risk factors for Alzheimer’s disease (AD). However, the causality of this association has not been established. <h4>Methods</h4> We used publicly available GWAS summary statistics to construct instrumental variables for age-related hearing difficulty. We tested these genetic instruments for association with the outcome of AD using AD...
