Network Mendelian randomization: using genetic variants as instrumental variables to investigate mediation in causal pathways
Background: Mendelian randomization uses genetic variants, assumed to be instrumental variables for a particular exposure, to estimate the causal effect of that exposure on an outcome. If the instrumental variable criteria are satisfied, the resulting estimator is consistent even in the presence of...
