Article Synopsis
- Increasing evidence suggests a link between gut microbiota and chronic kidney disease (CKD), but whether it's a causal relationship is still unclear.
- Mendelian randomization (MR) was used to investigate this potential causal connection, analyzing genomic data from public databases focusing on gut microbiota and CKD.
- The study found 10 microbiota types potentially increasing CKD risk and 5 types that could protect against it, indicating that further exploration of these gut microbes may offer new insights for preventing and monitoring CKD.
