25(OH)D 25-hydroxyvitamin D, CI confidence interval, GWAS genome-wide association study, OR odds ratio, SNP single-nucleotide polymorphism, UKBB UK Biobank. The estimates of MR analyses were derived from inverse-weighted model with random effects and scaled to one standard deviation increase in serum calcium and 25(OH)D concentrations. The cases were defined by living to an age beyond the 90th survival percentile based on individual cohort life tables from census data from the appropriate country, sex, and birth cohort and the controls were individuals who died at or before the 60th percentile of the expected age at death or whose age at the last follow-up visit was ≤60th survival percentile in Deelen et al. study. The cases were individuals with both parents’ lifespan in top 10% (father’s age ≥86 years and mother’s age ≥90 years) in Pilling et al. study.
