Non-linear association of serum molybdenum and linear association of serum zinc with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease: Multiple-exposure and Mendelian randomization approach
2020, Science of the Total EnvironmentCitation Excerpt :MR method uses genetic variants as IV to estimate the effect of an exposure on an outcome, consequently making causal inferences (Haycock et al., 2016). This method could well solve the limitations of traditional epidemiological study design (cohort study, case-control study, etc.), such as potential or unmeasured confounders, reverse causation bias, and measurement error, which severely constrained the ability to infer causality (Phillips and Smith, 1991; Smith and Ebrahim, 2002). Previous studies have identified five zinc-related SNPs, but not molybdenum, in European populations.
