Abstract excerpt
Human blood metabolites have been closely linked to ankylosing spondylitis (AS) in observational studies, yet direct causal evidence remains limited. This study aims to use Mendelian randomization (MR) to pinpoint causal metabolites associated with AS and to predict potential side effects of metabolite interventions. Genetic instruments for exposure were sourced from a genome-wide association study of 1400 blood...
