Education and coronary heart disease: a Mendelian randomization study

2017-02-06

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Objectives</h4> To determine whether educational attainment is a causal risk factor in the development of coronary heart disease. <h4>Design</h4> Mendelian randomization study, where genetic data are used as proxies for education, in order to minimize confounding. A two-sample design was applied, where summary level genetic data was analysed from two publically available consortia. <h4>Setting</h4> In the m...
