The causal relationship between rheumatoid arthritis and interstitial lung disease in East Asian population: A two-sample Mendelian randomization study.

Abstract excerpt

To investigate the causal relationship between rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and interstitial lung disease (ILD) in the East Asian population, we utilized Mendelian randomization (MR). Publicly available summarized data from genome-wide association studies on RA (4199 cases and 208,254 controls), and the data on ILD (1046 cases and 176,974 controls) were obtained from BioBank Japan.
