Outcomes were the phenotypes reported in the UKB and GWAS.

IVW_beta and IVW_pval the effect size and p value of IVW MR analysis, NSNP the number of IVs in the analysis, HDL cholesterol high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, global-Pval the pval of MR-PRESSO global test to detect horizontal pleiotropic effect, Outlier-corrected corrected MR results with outliers being removed to correct horizontal pleiotropic effect.

aThe phenotype of interest was type 2 diabetes in secondary analyses.

bThe phenotype of interest was sleep duration in secondary analyses.
