A cautionary note on using Mendelian randomization to examine the Barker hypothesis and Developmental Origins of Health and Disease (DOHaD)
D'Urso, Shannon; Wang, Geng; Hwang, Liang-Dar; Moen, Gunn-Helen; Warrington, Nicole Maree; Evans, David M. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Recent studies have used Mendelian randomization (MR) to investigate the observational association between low birth weight (BW) and increased risk of cardiometabolic outcomes, specifically cardiovascular disease, glycemic ... -
Estimating indirect parental genetic effects on offspring phenotypes using virtual parental genotypes derived from sibling and half sibling pairs
Hwang, Liang-Dar; Tubbs, Justin D.; Luong, Justin; Lundberg, Mischa; Moen, Gunn-Helen; Wang, Geng; Warrington, Nicole Maree; Sham, Pak C.; Cuellar-Partida, Gabriel; Evans, David M. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Indirect parental genetic effects may be defined as the influence of parental genotypes on offspring phenotypes over and above that which results from the transmission of genes from parents to their children. However, given ... -
Investigating a Potential Causal Relationship Between Maternal Blood Pressure During Pregnancy and Future Offspring Cardiometabolic Health
Wang, Geng; Bhatta, Laxmi; Moen, Gunn-Helen; Hwang, Liang-Dar; Kemp, John P.; Bond, Tom A.; Åsvold, Bjørn Olav; Brumpton, Ben Michael; Evans, David M.; Warrington, Nicole M. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Observational epidemiological studies have reported that higher maternal blood pressure (BP) during pregnancy is associated with increased future risk of offspring cardiometabolic disease. However, it is unclear whether ... -
Mendelian randomization study of maternal coffee consumption and its influence on birthweight, stillbirth, miscarriage, gestational age and pre-term birth
Brito Nunes, Caroline; Huang, Peiyuan; Wang, Geng; Lundberg, Mischa; D'Urso, Shannon; Wootton, Robyn E; Borges, Maria Carolina; Lawlor, Deborah A.; Warrington, Nicole Maree; Evans, David M.; Hwang, Liang-Dar; Moen, Gunn-Helen Øiseth (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Background Coffee consumption has been associated with several adverse pregnancy outcomes, although data from randomized–controlled trials are lacking. We investigate whether there is a causal relationship between coffee ... -
Mendelian randomization study of maternal influences on birthweight and future cardiometabolic risk in the HUNT cohort
Moen, Gunn-Helen; Brumpton, Ben Michael; Willer, Cristen J.; Åsvold, Bjørn Olav; Birkeland, Kåre I.; Wang, Geng; Neale, Michael C.; Freathy, Rachel M.; Smith, George Davey; Lawlor, Debbie A.; Kirkpatrick, Robert M.; Warrington, Nicole Maree; Evans, David M. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)There is a robust observational relationship between lower birthweight and higher risk of cardiometabolic disease in later life. The Developmental Origins of Health and Disease (DOHaD) hypothesis posits that adverse ...
