ci_normal

Internal function for calculating confidence intervals using the normal distribution.

internal

Encodes several methods for performing Mendelian randomization
analyses with summarized data. Summarized data on genetic associations with the
exposure and with the outcome can be obtained from large consortia. These data
can be used for obtaining causal estimates using instrumental variable methods.
