Causal effect of central obesity on left ventricular structure and function in preserved EF population: A Mendelian randomization study

BackgroundObservational studies have shown that central obesity is associated with adverse cardiac structure and function. However, causal association between central obesity and left ventricular (LV) structure and function in preserved ejection fraction (EF) population is still uncertain.MethodsGen...
