Mendelian randomization analysis revealed causal effects from gut microbiota to abdominal obesity

2020-04-23

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Although recent studies have revealed the association between the gut microbiota and obesity, the causality remains elusive. We performed a Mendelian Randomization (MR) analysis to determine whether there is a causal relationship between gut microbiota and abdominal obesity. We used a two-sample MR approach to assess the causal effect from gut microbiota to obesity based on genome-wide associati...
