Causal association between hyperthyroidism and risk of gastroesophageal reflux or esophageal cancer: a bidirectional Mendelian randomization investigation
Our findings provided genetic evidence supporting bidirectional causal relationships between hyperthyroidism and GERD or esophageal cancer. These results substantiate certain discoveries from previous observational studies on a causal level and provide insight into relevant genetic susceptibility factors.
