A multivariable Mendelian randomization analysis investigating smoking and alcohol consumption in oral and oropharyngeal cancer

Alcohol and smoking are both associated with oral/oropharyngeal cancer risk, but independent effects are unclear given their relatedness. Here, the authors use multivariable Mendelian randomization to show that both alcohol and smoking are independently causal for oral/oropharyngeal cancer.
