We first systematically reviewed all peer-reviewed publications on concomitant IIM and duodenal biopsy-verified CeD. The collected evidence was suggestive of associations between myositis disease activity and gluten exposure in some patients with IIM-CeD.

Aim: Increasing observational studies are revealing a positive correlation between body mass index (BMI) and the risk of Immune-mediated and Inflammatory Skin Diseases (IMID), however the causal relationship is not yet definite.
Objective: The aim of the study was to conduct a two-sample Mendelian randomization (TSMR) to explore the potential causality between BMI, and IMID and biomarkers.
Methods: The summary statistics for BMI (n = 322,154), at genome-wide significant level, were derived from the Genetic Investigation of Anthropometric Traits consortium (GIANT).
