Causal mediation analysis for time-varying heritable risk factors with Mendelian randomization
Abstract Understanding the causal mechanisms of diseases is crucial in clinical research. When randomized experiments are unavailable, Mendelian Randomization (MR) leverages genetic mutations to mitigate confounding. However, most MR analyses assume static risk factors, oversimplifying dynamic risk...
