Menopausal age does not affect ventricular structure and function: a Mendelian randomization study.

Published in: Climacteric : the journal of the International Menopause Society (2024)

The present MR study indicated that ANM would not causally affect ventricular structure or function. Therefore, the correlation between ANM and ventricular characteristics in previous observational studies might be attributed to shared upstream cardiovascular risk factors or unidentified genetic mutations that simultaneously affect both ANM and ventricular structure and function.
