Bidirectional causal associations between frailty measures and sleep disturbances: a two-sample Mendelian randomization study by Che L, Zang H, Bi Y, Wen B, Xu L

“…We conducted the causal estimates using the inverse variance-weighted method (IVW), with sensitivity analyses using MR-Egger, weighted median, weighted mode, and MR pleiotropy residual sum and outlier (MR-PRESSO) analysis. Cochran’s Q test was performed to assess heterogeneity.Results: We found that genetically predicted FI was associated with shorter sleep duration and sleep apnea. …”
