abstract = {Observational studies suggest greater height is associated
with increased ovarian cancer risk, but cannot exclude bias
and/or confounding as explanations for this. Mendelian
randomisation (MR) can provide evidence which may be less
prone to bias.We pooled data from 39 Ovarian Cancer
Association Consortium studies (16,395 cases; 23,003
controls). We applied two-stage predictor-substitution MR,
using a weighted genetic risk score combining 609
single-nucleotide polymorphisms. Study-specific odds ratios
(OR) and $95\%$ confidence intervals (CI) for the
association between genetically predicted height and risk
were pooled using random-effects meta-analysis.Greater
genetically predicted height was associated with increased
ovarian cancer risk overall (pooled-OR (pOR) = 1.06;
$95\%$ CI: 1.01-1.11 per 5 cm increase in height), and
separately for invasive (pOR = 1.06; $95\%$ CI:
1.01-1.11) and borderline (pOR = 1.15; $95\%$ CI:
1.02-1.29) tumours.Women with a genetic propensity to being
taller have increased risk of ovarian cancer. This suggests
genes influencing height are involved in pathways promoting
ovarian carcinogenesis.},
