Genetically determined body mass index and maternal outcomes of pregnancy: a two-sample Mendelian randomization study

2022-08-22

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Objective: </h4> Observational studies have described associations between obesity and adverse outcomes of pregnancy. Mendelian randomization (MR) takes advantage of the ‘natural’ genetic randomization to risk of an exposure such as body mass index (BMI) to study the effects of the exposure on outcomes.
