Association of genetically predicted blood sucrose with coronary heart disease and its risk factors in Mendelian randomization
Abstract We assessed the associations of genetically instrumented blood sucrose with risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) and its risk factors (i.e., type 2 diabetes, adiposity, blood pressure, lipids, and glycaemic traits), using two-sample Mendelian randomization. We used blood fructose as a valid...
