Estimating the causal effect of genetic liability to prevalent disease on hospital costs using Mendelian Randomization

2020-07-11

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>BACKGROUND</h4> Accurate measurement of the effects of disease status on healthcare cost is important in the pragmatic evaluation of interventions but is complicated by endogeneity biases due to omitted variables and reverse causality. Mendelian Randomization, the use of random perturbations in germline genetic variation as instrumental variables, can avoid these limitations. We report a nove...
