Description

Observational studies have suggested links between standing height, BMI, body fat percentage, and inguinal hernia risk, but with inconsistent results. We conducted Mendelian randomization (MR) method to investigate their causal relationships. Independent SNPs associated with standing height, BMI, and body fat percentage were extracted from GWAS data as instrumental variables (IVs).
