Assessing the potential causal effects of 1099 plasma metabolites on 2099 binary disease endpoints

Abstract Metabolites are small molecules that are useful for estimating disease risk and elucidating disease biology. Here, we perform two-sample Mendelian randomization to systematically infer the potential causal effects of 1099 plasma metabolites measured in 6136 Finnish men from the METSIM study...
