Using genetic variation to disentangle the complex relationship between food intake and health outcomes

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Nicola Pirastu and colleagues from the Centre for Global Health Research, Usher Institute, University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh, Scotland, United have published the paper: Using genetic variation to disentangle the complex relationship between food intake and health outcomes, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
  • what: The authors show that using all associated SNPs without omitting those which show evidence of mediation leads to biases in downstream analyses (genetic correlations causal inference) similar to those present in observational studies. This study was designed to initially identify the genetic variants associated with reported food consumption, and then to leverage . . .
