Analysis of causal effects on metabolic syndrome and inflammatory bowel disease: a Mendelian randomization study
Although confounding factors cannot be completely ruled out, certain metabolic components, such as WC, may impact the risk of IBD. In addition to highlighting the need for more research to understand the underlying mechanisms and potential indirect effects between MetS components and IBD, this research offers insight into therapeutic treatment decisions for patients with IBD and MetS.
