The causal effects of gut microbiota on quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) and T2* imaging-derived phenotypes: insights from a Mendelian randomization study
This study found genetic evidence that gut microbiota dysbiosis has causal effects on brain iron-related IDPs. Our findings provide novel insights into the diagnosis and therapeutic management of central nervous system (CNS) diseases.
