From: Causal relationship between dietary salt intake and dementia risk: Mendelian randomization study
Scatter plot in the MR study. Scatter plot for two-sample MR analysis of causal relationship between dietary salt intake and risk of dementia using five MR methods: A Alzheimer’s disease, B Vascular dementia, C Lewy body dementia, D dementia. The β-value with SE is plotted to demonstrate effect estimate of each SNP for causal association of dietary salt intake (x-axis) with dementia (y-axis). The slope of each line represents the two-sample MR estimate (β-value) for the individual SNP. Error bar represents SE of effect size. Abbreviations: MR, Mendelian randomization; SE, standard error; SNP, number of single-nucleotide polymorphism
