Abstract excerpt
Background: It has been reported that COVID-19 patients have an increased risk of developing IBS; however, the underlying genetic mechanisms of these associations remain largely unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate potential shared SNPs, genes, proteins, and biological pathways between COVID-19 and IBS by assessing pairwise genetic correlations and cross-trait genetic analysis. Materials and methods:...
