2021-02-25
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background The causal effect of insulin resistance on small vessel stroke and Alzheimer Disease was controversial in previous studies. Methods We selected 12 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with body mass index (BMI)-adjusted fasting insulin levels and 5 SNPs associated with gold standard measures of insulin resistance as instrumental variables in Mendelian randomiza...
