Relationship between birth weight and chronic kidney disease: an integrative analysis of observational studies and causal inference through genetic approaches

2019-08-08

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Objective</h4> Although many observational studies have shown that there was an inverse association between birth weight and chronic kidney disease (CKD) in adults, whether such association is causal remains largely unclear. <h4>Methods</h4> We first conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate the association between birth weight and CKD. Then using a set of valid instru...
