Mendelian randomization while jointly modeling cis genetics identifies causal relationships between gene expression and lipids

Mendelian randomization is a useful tool to infer causal relationships between traits, but can be confounded by the presence of pleiotropy. Here, the authors have developed MR-link, a Mendelian randomization method which accounts for unobserved pleiotropy and linkage disequilibrium between instrumen...

Mendelian randomization while jointly modeling cis genetics identifies causal relationships between gene expression and lipids
description Mendelian randomization is a useful tool to infer causal relationships between traits, but can be confounded by the presence of pleiotropy. Here, the authors have developed MR-link, a Mendelian randomization method which accounts for unobserved pleiotropy and linkage disequilibrium between instrumental variables.
