Cardiometabolic pathways linking genetically proxied educational attainment to cardiovascular disease: a Mendelian randomisation, mediation and colocalisation study

2026-08-19

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Aims</h4> Socioeconomic disadvantage is associated with excess cardiovascular disease (CVD), but the extent to which this gradient operates through modifiable biological pathways remains unquantified. We used Mendelian randomisation (MR) to estimate how much of the association between genetically proxied educational attainment (EA) and CVD is mediated through conventional cardiometabolic risk factors (RFs), a...
