Fig. 5: Causal influences of body mass index (BMI) on the metabolites.
From: Pleiotropic and sex-specific genetic mechanisms of circulating metabolic markers

Plot listing coefficients from two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses on the x-axis, and the 6 different metabolites that showed a significant influence of BMI on the y-axis. The dots and lines represent the point estimates with their standard error around the mean, colour-coded by the MR method used.
