Mendelian Randomization analyses reveal a causal effect of thyroid function on stroke via atrial fibrillation

2019-07-30

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Several observational studies suggest that variations in thyroid function, even within the normal range, are a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, but it remains to be determined if these associations are causal or not. This study investigates whether the relationship between variation in normal range thyroid function, as well as hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism, and the risk of stroke...
