Abstract excerpt
Gut microbiota dysbiosis is increasingly recognized as a contributor to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), yet causal relationships and underlying mechanisms remain unclear.

This study aimed to determine whether specific gut microbial taxa are causally associated with IBD and whether...
