mr.pivw - Penalized Inverse-Variance Weighted Estimator for Mendelian Randomization

The penalized inverse-variance weighted (pIVW) estimator is a Mendelian randomization method for estimating the causal effect of an exposure variable on an outcome of interest based on summary-level GWAS data. The pIVW estimator accounts for weak instruments and balanced horizontal pleiotropy simultaneously. See Xu S., Wang P., Fung W.K. and Liu Z. (2022) <doi:10.1111/biom.13732>.
