Causal relationships between the gut microbiota, inflammatory cytokines, and alcoholic liver disease: a Mendelian randomization analysis
ObjectivePrevious studies have suggested a potential association between gut microbiota and the development of alcohol-related liver disease (ALD).However, the causal relationship between gut microbiota and ALD, as well as the role of inflammatory cytokines as mediators, remains unclear.This study aims to explore the causal relationship between gut
