Objective To estimate effects of vitamin D levels on incident delirium hospital admissions using inherited genetic variants in mendelian randomization models, which minimize confounding and exclude reverse causation. Methods Longitudinal analysis using the UK Biobank, community-based, volunteer cohort (2006-2010) with incident hospital-diagnosed delirium (ICD-10 F05) ascertained during 0.05). Participants with >= 1 APOE epsilon 4 allele were more likely to develop delirium (e.g., epsilon 4 epsilon 4 hazard ratio = 3.73, 95% confidence interval 2.68-5.21, p = 8.0 x 10(-15) compared to epsilon 3 epsilon 3), but there was no interaction with vitamin D variants. Conclusions and relevance In a large community-based cohort, there is genetic evidence supporting a causal role for vitamin D levels in incident delirium. Trials of correction of low vitamin D levels in the prevention of delirium are needed.
