Investigating causal relationships between Body Mass Index and risk of atopic dermatitis : a Mendelian randomization analysis
Population studies suggest that atopic dermatitis (AD) is associated with an increased risk of obesity, however a causal relationship between these two conditions remains to be established. We therefore use Mendelian randomization (MR) to evaluate whether obesity and AD are causally interlinked. We...
