Abstract excerpt
This study investigates the causal links between serum uric acid (UA), gout, and the risk of acute pancreatitis (AP) using a bidirectional 2-sample Mendelian randomization analysis of genome-wide association studies data. The primary inverse variance weighted method indicated that genetically predicted higher serum UA levels are causally associated with an increased risk of AP (odds ratio [OR] = 1.194, 95%...
