The causal role of circulating vitamin D concentrations in human complex traits and diseases: a large-scale Mendelian randomization study

2019-06-21

Abstract excerpt

Vitamin D has been associated with a variety of human complex traits and diseases in observational studies, but a causal relationship remains unclear. To examine a putative causal effect of vitamin D across phenotypic domains and disease categories, we conducted Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses using genetic instruments associated with circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] concentrations. We leveraged gen...
