BMI mediates the effects of gut microbes on bone mineral density in the "intestinal bone axis": an observational study versus a mediation Mendelian randomization study
2023-08-04
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background Several pieces of evidence suggest a strong association between gut microbiota (GM) and bone mineral density (BMD), but the intermediate factors between them are still unknown. While one study proposes that body mass index (BMI) might serve as an intermediary factor between gut microbiota and bone mineral density, there is insufficient evidence to substantiate this claim. We...
