Abstract excerpt
Background: Observational studies suggest a link between common analgesic use and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), but causality is unclear. This study aimed to investigate the bidirectional causal relationship between the genetically predicted use of paracetamol, aspirin, and ibuprofen, and COPD risk using a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) approach. Methods: We performed a bidirectional MR...
