Adiposity, metabolites, and colorectal cancer risk: Mendelian randomization study

Adiposity, metabolites, and colorectal cancer risk: Mendelian randomization study

Abstract Background Higher adiposity increases the risk of colorectal cancer (CRC), but whether this relationship varies by anatomical sub-site or by sex is unclear. Further, the metabolic alterations mediating the effects of adiposity on CRC are not fully understood. Methods We examined sex- and si...
