Enhancing Mendelian Randomization Causal Inference through Pleiotropic Clustering in the Presence of Correlated Horizontal Pleiotropy
2024-05-09
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Correlated horizontal pleiotropy poses a formidable challenge in Mendelian randomization (MR). Existing methods, relying on sparse pleiotropic variants or zero modal pleiotropy assumption (ZEMPA), may face issues, especially in trait pairs with a high proportion of correlated horizontal pleiotropic variants. We propose an innovative Pleiotropic Clustering model for MR analysis (PCMR) to...
