New loci associated with kidney function and chronic kidney disease

Anna Köttgen, +137 more
- 01 May 2010 - 
TL;DR: The CKDGen consortium performed a meta-analysis of genome-wide association data in 67,093 individuals of European ancestry to identify new susceptibility loci for reduced renal function as estimated by serum creatinine, serum cystatin c and CKD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Assessing the suitability of summary data for two-sample Mendelian randomization analyses using MR-Egger regression: the role of the I2 statistic

TL;DR: The proposed approach for a two-sample summary data MR analysis to estimate the causal effect of low-density lipoprotein on heart disease risk is demonstrated and care must be taken to assess the NOME assumption via the IGX2 statistic before implementing standard MR-Egger regression in the two- sample summary data context.
Journal ArticleDOI

A framework for the investigation of pleiotropy in two-sample summary data Mendelian randomization

TL;DR: How established methods of meta‐regression and random effects modelling from mainstream meta‐analysis are being adapted to perform MR analyses are clarified, and the ability of two popular random effects models to provide robustness to pleiotropy under the IVW approach is investigated.
