Estimation of causal effects of a time-varying exposure at multiple time points through multivariable mendelian randomization

Eleanor Sanderson et al.

Summary: Mendelian Randomisation (MR) is a powerful tool in epidemiology that estimates the causal effect of an exposure on an outcome by using genetic variants as instrumental variables. Multivariable MR (MVMR) is an extension of MR that allows for multiple related exposures to be included in the estimation. MVMR can estimate the direct effect of a single exposure at different time points in an individual's lifetime.

Mendelian randomization

Eleanor Sanderson et al.

Summary: Mendelian randomization (MR) uses genetic variation to address causal questions about modifiable exposures, with principles based on Mendel's laws and instrumental variable estimation methods. It enables inference of causal effects and can be used as part of a triangulation across multiple sources of evidence for causal inference.

Sex-dimorphic genetic effects and novel loci for fasting glucose and insulin variability

Vasiliki Lagou et al.

Summary: Sex differences play a role in genetic effects on fasting glucose and insulin levels, with a sex dimorphism in allelic effects on fasting insulin and sex-homogeneous effects on fasting glucose. In addition, there are stronger genetic correlations between fasting insulin and waist-to-hip ratio/anorexia nervosa in women, and waist-to-hip ratio is causally related to insulin resistance in women but not in men. These findings highlight the importance of understanding metabolic and glycemic health sex dimorphism in exploring genetic effects in related phenotypes between women and men.

Using Mendelian Randomisation methods to understand whether diurnal preference is causally related to mental health

Jessica O'Loughlin et al.

Summary: The study aimed to quantify the causal contribution of diurnal preference on mental health outcomes, using observational and genetic approaches to show that early diurnal preference is protective against depression and improves wellbeing. Further research is needed to confirm the role of behavioral factors, including circadian misalignment, in the relationship between chronotype and depression.

Computationally efficient whole-genome regression for quantitative and binary traits

Joelle Mbatchou et al.

Summary: REGENIE is a novel machine-learning method for fitting whole-genome regression models for quantitative and binary phenotypes, offering faster speed and reduced computational requirements compared to alternatives. It is particularly well-suited for parallel analysis of multiple phenotypes in biobank-scale data sets.
