Causal relationship between gut microbiota and chronic renal failure: a two-sample Mendelian randomization study

ConclusionOur two-sample Mendelian randomization study suggests that the genera Escherichia-Shigella and Howardella are risk factors for chronic renal failure, and they may serve as potential targets for future therapeutic interventions. However, the exact mechanisms of action are not yet clear, necessitating further research to elucidate their precise roles fully.
