Abstract excerpt
This study investigates the causal relationship between genetically proxied iron-supplement drugs and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) risk. After identifying 8 commonly used iron supplementation drugs based on the guidelines, a search for each of these drugs yielded 18 key regulatory targets and the locus information of each drug-targeted gene was obtained. Hemoglobin was selected as a biomarker downstream of...
