We further validated this potential causal relationship using SomaScan pQTLs 47 (Methods), where the weighted median estimator 48 showed significant result (OR = 0.89, 95% CI: 0.81-0.98, p -value = 0.019) while the IVW estimator was close to significance with the same direction of effect (OR = 0.94, 95% CI: 0.87–1.02, p -value = 0.12).
