CAUSAL RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN HELICOBACTER PYLORI ANTIBODIES AND IMMUNE THROMBOCYTOPENIA: A MENDELIAN RANDOMIZATION STUDY
The outcomes derived from our two-sample Mendelian randomization analysis demonstrate a discernible link between the levels of <i>H. pylori</i> GroEL antibodies and an augmented susceptibility to ITP. However, it is imperative to expand the sample size further in order to corroborate the correlation between <i>H. pylori</i> infection and ITP.
