Causal relationship between immune cells and the risk of myeloperoxidase antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis: A Mendelian randomization study.

Abstract excerpt

Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) is a rare inflammatory disease categorized as antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis. The majority of patients are ANCA-positive, predominantly against myeloperoxidase (MPO). Previous studies have predominantly concentrated on the association between EGPA and neutrophils, but recent research has emphasized the role of lymphocytes in...
