The influence of high body mass index on asthma: A study integrating GBD 2021 and Mendelian randomization.
Elevated body mass index (BMI) represents a significant adjustable risk element for asthma, posing a considerable worldwide health concern. This research was designed to assess the worldwide impact of asthma due to high BMI between 1990 and 2021, forecast patterns through 2050, and use 2-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) to examine whether elevated BMI is genetically associated with asthma risk, in order to guide preventive approaches.
