Association of lipid-lowering drugs with COVID-19 outcomes: A Mendelian Randomization study

2021-07-24

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Lipid metabolism plays an important role in viral infections. Large cohort study suggested a protective potential of lipid-lowering drugs in COVID-19 outcomes, but the nature of observational study precludes it to draw a causal inference. <h4>Objectives</h4> To assess the causal effect of lipid-lowering drugs (HMGCR inhibitors, PCSK9 inhibitors and NPC1L1 inhibitors) on COVID-19 outcomes usin...
