2023-09-11
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: We conducted a Mendelian Randomization(MR) study to investigate the causal association between obesity and thyroid function and thyroid disease. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: Uncorrelated genetic variants associated with Body Mass Index(BMI) (n = 543), Waist-hip Ratio(WHR)(n = 357), WHR adjusted for BMI (WHRadjBMI) (n = 330) at the genome-wide significance were selected as exposure instrument variables(...
