MR results with (left panel) and without (right panel) outlier SNP rs2075650. Each dot, corresponding to one of the instrumental SNPs of the investigation, represents estimated regression coefficient of the SNP on BMI (horizontal axis) and on heart attacks (vertical axis). The slopes are causal effects (log odds ratios) of BMI on heart attacks estimated from two MR methods: inverse variance weighted (IVW) estimation (red) and robust adjusted profile score (RAPS) (blue)
