Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: It is crucial to pinpoint the metabolites that cause Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) to comprehend their pathogenesis and identify possible targets for therapy. To achieve this goal, we performed the first metabolome-wide Mendelian randomization (MR) study of Japanese patients with CD and UC. METHODS: As exposure datasets, genetic instruments with blood-circulating metabolites were...
