The causal effects of lipid traits on kidney function in Africans: bidirectional and multivariable Mendelian-randomization studyResearch in context

Summary: Background: Observational studies have investigated the effect of serum lipids on kidney function, but these findings are limited by confounding, reverse causation and have reported conflicting results. Mendelian randomization (MR) studies address this confounding problem. However, they ha...
