Use of multivariable Mendelian randomization to address biases due to competing risk before recruitment

2019-07-26

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Mendelian randomization (MR) provides unconfounded estimates. MR is open to selection bias particularly when the underlying sample is selected on surviving the genetically instrumented exposure and other conditions that share etiology with the outcome (competing risk before recruitment). Few methods to address this bias exist. <h4>Methods</h4> We use directed acyclic graphs to show this selec...
