Lee, Jiwoo; Jukarainen, Sakari; Karvanen, Antti; Dixon, Padraig; Davies, Neil Martin; Smith, George Davey; Natarajan, Pradeep; Ganna, Andrea (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Understanding the causal impact that clinical risk factors have on healthcare-related costs is critical to evaluate healthcare interventions. Here, we used a genetically-informed design, Mendelian Randomization (MR), to ... -
Separating the genetics of childhood and adult obesity: a validation study of genetic scores for body mass index in adolescence and adulthood in the HUNT Study
Brandkvist, Maria Charlotta; Bjørngaard, Johan Håkon; Ødegård, Rønnaug; Åsvold, Bjørn Olav; Smith, George Davey; Brumpton, Ben Michael; Hveem, Kristian; Richardson, Tom G.; Vie, Gunnhild Åberge (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)From a life-course perspective, genetic and environmental factors driving childhood obesity may have a lasting inf luence on health later in life. However, how obesity trajectories vary throughout the life-course remains ... -

Within family Mendelian randomization studies
Davies, Neil M.; Howe, Laurence; Brumpton, Ben Michael; Havdahl, Alexandra; Evans, David M.; Smith, George Davey (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Mendelian randomization (MR) is increasingly used to make causal inferences in a wide range of fields, from drug development to etiologic studies. Causal inference in MR is possible because of the process of genetic ... -
