Gut microbiota's causative relationship with peripheral artery disease: a Mendelian randomization study

The observed associations now warrant further validation in varied populations and detailed exploration at finer taxonomic levels.PMID:38505559 | PMC:PMC10948605 | DOI:10.3389/fmicb.2024.1340262
