Genetic Insights into the Gut-Lung Axis: Mendelian Randomization Analysis on Gut Microbiota, Lung Function, and COPD
1 Mar 2024
Abstract excerpt
Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a respiratory disorder with a complex etiology involving genetic and environmental factors. The dysbiosis of gut microbiota has been implicated in COPD. Mendelian Randomization (MR) provides a tool to investigate causal links using genetic variants as instrumental variables. This study aims to employ MR analysis to explore the causal relationship between...
