Abstract excerpt
The blockade of the interleukin 6 receptor (IL-6R) demonstrates significant potential in various autoimmune diseases (ADs); however, the underlying therapeutic efficacy associated with this approach remains elusive. We conducted a comprehensive Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis based on large-scale genome-wide association studies to investigate the causal relationships between genetically proxied IL-6R...
