Genetic Insights into the Gut-Lung Axis: Mendelian Randomization Analysis on Gut Microbiota, Lung Function, and COPD.

Several microbial taxa were discovered to have a positive causal correlation with lung function, offering potential insights into the development of probiotics. The presence of microbial taxa negatively correlated with lung function and positively correlated with COPD emphasized the potential impact of gut microbiota dysbiosis on respiratory health.
