Evaluating the potential role of pleiotropy in Mendelian randomization studies
Pleiotropy, the phenomenon of a single genetic variant influencing multiple traits, is likely
widespread in the human genome. If pleiotropy arises because the single nucleotide …

Orienting the causal relationship between imprecisely measured traits using GWAS summary data
Inference about the causal structure that induces correlations between two traits can be
achieved by combining genetic associations with a mediation-based approach, as is done in …
