New insights into causal relationship between serum lipids, obesity, and asthma: a Mendelian randomization study

This MR study found that genetically predicted higher BF% and BMI could increase the risk for asthma and corroborated some risk factors for asthma from previous MR studies. Moreover, the results suggest that higher BMI and BF% could serve as independent risk factors for asthma.

Abstract

This MR study found that genetically predicted higher BF% and BMI could increase the risk for asthma and corroborated some risk factors for asthma from previous MR studies. Moreover, the results suggest that higher BMI and BF% could serve as independent risk factors for asthma.
