Abstract:BackgroundObservational studies and clinical trials have implicated polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) in potentially safeguarding against diabetic microvascular complication. Nonetheless, the causal nature of these relationships remains ambiguous due to conflicting findings across studies. This research employs Mendelian randomization (MR) to assess the causal impact of PUFAs on diabetic microvascular complications.MethodsWe identified instrumental variables for PUFAs, specifically omega-3 and omega-6 fatty … Show more
