Journal ArticleDOI

Genetically elevated C-reactive protein and vascular disease.

TL;DR: The upper confidence limit of this causal effect is considerably lower than the observed association and, despite the wider confidence intervals associated with estimates based on mendelian randomization, suggests that elevated CRP levels are unlikely to cause a substantial increase in the risk of ischemic heart disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Maternal reproductive hormones and angiogenic factors in pregnancy and subsequent breast cancer risk.

TL;DR: These data do not provide strong evidence of associations between maternal hormones or angiogenic factors with subsequent maternal breast cancer risk, and were similar adjusting for potential confounders.
Posted ContentDOI

A genome-wide association study of mitochondrial DNA copy number in two population-based cohorts

TL;DR: In a hypothesis-generating GWAS, an association between TFAM and mtDNA CN is confirmed, and putative loci requiring replication in much larger samples are presented, and the need for larger studies to better understand nuclear genomic control of mtDNA copy number is highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prenatal alcohol exposure and pregnancy and childhood outcomes: a systematic review of alternative analytical approaches

TL;DR: A systematic review of studies that used alternative analytical methods to determine the causal effects of maternal alcohol consumption in pregnancy on long-term outcomes in offspring found a causal effect of prenatal alcohol consumption on offspring outcomes.
