Smoking and COVID-19: A two-sample Mendelian randomization study

2021-04-06

Abstract excerpt

Evidence from observational studies suggested that smokers are at increased risk of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). We aimed to assess the causal effect of smoking on risk for COVID-19 susceptibility and severity using two-sample Mendelian randomization method. Smoking-associated variants were selected as instrument variables from two largest genetic studies. The latest summary data of COVID-19 that shared on...
