Platelet indices and blood pressure: a multivariable mendelian randomization study
Abstract Background Platelet indices are blood-based parameters reflecting the activation of platelets. Previous studies have identified an association between platelet indices and blood pressure (BP). However, causal inferences are prone to bias by confounding effects and reverse causation. We perf...
