Mendelian randomization analysis to explore causality between BMI and FG/FI. (A) IV estimator is calculated as the beta coefficient from the association of GRSBMI with FG or FI divided by the beta coefficient from the association of GRSBMI with BMI (IV estimator = 0.31 pmol/l/BMI unit). The IV estimator is equivalent to what is seen when FI is regressed on BMI. These results are supportive of a causal, non-confounded relationship. (B) The relationship of FG or FI with BMI.
