Overall, univariable IVW point estimates for the relation between DHA and CVDs were consistent with estimates from MR-Egger, except for peripheral artery disease and venous thromboembolism (which were slightly higher for MR-Egger), and with estimates from multivariable IVW, except for coronary artery disease and aortic aneurism (which were fully attenuated in multivariable MR adjusting for LDL-cholesterol or apolipoprotein B) (Fig. 2). Here, APOB is linked to venous thromboembolism.
