Plasma Phospholipid Fatty Acids, FADS1 and Risk of 15 Cardiovascular Diseases
Whether circulating fatty acids (FAs) play a causal role in the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains unclear. We conducted a Mendelian randomisation study to explore the associations between plasma phospholipid FA...
Serum magnesium levels and risk of coronary artery disease
Background. Observational studies have shown that serum magnesium levels are inversely associated risk of cardiovascular disease, but whether this association is causal is unknown. We conducted a Mendelian randomization study to...
Genetically Predicted Midlife Blood Pressure and Coronary Artery Disease Risk
Background Elevated blood pressure is a major cause of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. However, it is not known whether midlife blood pressure affects later life cardiovascular risk independent of later life blood...
Investigating the Causal Relationship of C-Reactive Protein with 32 Complex Somatic and Psychiatric Outcomes
BACKGROUND: C-reactive protein (CRP) is associated with immune, cardiometabolic, and psychiatric traits and diseases. Yet it is inconclusive whether these associations are causal. METHODS AND FINDINGS: We performed Mendelian...

The discovery of genetic loci associated with complex diseases has outpaced the elucidation of mechanisms of disease pathogenesis. Here we conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) for coronary artery disease (CAD)...
