Efficient design for Mendelian randomization studies: subsample and 2-sample instrumental variable estimators.

American journal of epidemiology

Pierce BL, Burgess S.
PMID: 23863760
Am J Epidemiol. 2013 Oct 01;178(7):1177-84. doi: 10.1093/aje/kwt084. Epub 2013 Jul 17.

Mendelian randomization (MR) is a method for estimating the causal relationship between an exposure and an outcome using a genetic factor as an instrumental variable (IV) for the exposure. In the traditional MR setting, data on the IV, exposure,...

Invited Commentary: Detecting Individual and Global Horizontal Pleiotropy in Mendelian Randomization-A Job for the Humble Heterogeneity Statistic?.

American journal of epidemiology

Bowden J, Hemani G, Davey Smith G.
PMID: 30188969
Am J Epidemiol. 2018 Dec 01;187(12):2681-2685. doi: 10.1093/aje/kwy185.

Mendelian randomization (MR) is gaining in recognition and popularity as a method for strengthening causal inference in epidemiology by utilizing genetic variants as instrumental variables. Concurrently with the explosion in empirical MR studies, there has been the steady production...

Beyond Mendelian randomization: how to interpret evidence of shared genetic predictors.

Journal of clinical epidemiology

Burgess S, Butterworth AS, Thompson JR.
PMID: 26291580
J Clin Epidemiol. 2016 Jan;69:208-16. doi: 10.1016/j.jclinepi.2015.08.001. Epub 2015 Aug 18.

OBJECTIVE: Mendelian randomization is a popular technique for assessing and estimating the causal effects of risk factors. If genetic variants which are instrumental variables for a risk factor are shown to be additionally associated with a disease outcome, then...

Mendelian Randomization Analysis as a Tool to Gain Insights into Causes of Diseases: A Primer.

Journal of the American Society of Nephrology : JASN

Tin A, Köttgen A.
PMID: 34135084
J Am Soc Nephrol. 2021 Oct;32(10):2400-2407. doi: 10.1681/ASN.2020121760. Epub 2021 Jun 16.

Many Mendelian randomization (MR) studies have been published recently, with inferences on the causal relationships between risk factors and diseases that have potential implications for clinical research. In nephrology, MR methods have been applied to investigate potential causal relationships...

Reciprocal interaction between depression and pain: results from a comprehensive bidirectional Mendelian randomization study and functional annotation analysis.

Pain

Tang B, Meng W, Hägg S, Burgess S, Jiang X.
PMID: 34924553
Pain. 2022 Jan 01;163(1):e40-e48. doi: 10.1097/j.pain.0000000000002305.

ABSTRACT: To understand a putative causal link for depression and pain, we retrieved summary statistics from genome-wide association studies conducted for pain at 7 different body sites (N = 151,922-226,683) and major depression disorder (MDD, Ncase/control = 246,363/561,190). We...

Identifying modifiable risk factors of lung cancer: Indications from Mendelian randomization.

PloS one

Ding J, Tu Z, Chen H, Liu Z.
PMID: 34662362
PLoS One. 2021 Oct 18;16(10):e0258498. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0258498. eCollection 2021.

BACKGROUND: Lung cancer is the major cause of mortality in tumor patients. While its incidence rate has recently declined, it is still far from satisfactory and its potential modifiable risk factors should be explored.METHODS: We performed a two-sample Mendelian...

Association of physical activity and sedentary behavior with type 2 diabetes and glycemic traits: a two-sample Mendelian randomization study.

BMJ open diabetes research & care

Meisinger C, Linseisen J, Leitzmann M, Baurecht H, Baumeister SE.
PMID: 33293297
BMJ Open Diabetes Res Care. 2020 Dec;8(2). doi: 10.1136/bmjdrc-2020-001896.

INTRODUCTION: Observational studies suggest that physical activity lowers and sedentary behavior increases the risk of type 2 diabetes. Despite of some supportive trial data for physical activity, it is largely unresolved whether these relations are causal or due to...

Genetically modulated educational attainment and coronary disease risk.

European heart journal

Zeng L, Ntalla I, Kessler T, Kastrati A, Erdmann J, Danesh J, Watkins H, Samani NJ, Deloukas P, Schunkert H.
PMID: 31170283
Eur Heart J. 2019 Aug 01;40(29):2413-2420. doi: 10.1093/eurheartj/ehz328.

AIMS: Genetic disposition and lifestyle factors are understood as independent components underlying the risk of multiple diseases. In this study, we aim to investigate the interplay between genetics, educational attainment-an important denominator of lifestyle-and coronary artery disease (CAD) risk.METHODS...
