Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: This study leverages a two-sample Mendelian Randomization (MR) approach to explore the causal relationships between 1,400 metabolites and pulmonary fibrosis, using genetic variation as instrumental variables. By adhering to stringent criteria for instrumental variable selection, the research aims to uncover metabolic pathways that may influence the risk and progression of pulmonary fibrosis, providing...
