The aspartate superpathway in gut microbiota-related metabolic pathways mediates immune cell protection against COPD and IPF: a Mendelian randomization analysis
Figure 4. The forest plot shows the causal relationship between the aspartate superpathway, cDC, and COPD. OR: odds ratio; CI: confidence interval. The relationship between the exposure variable and the outcome is calculated through several functions, including MR Egger, weighted median, inverse variance weighted (IVW), simple mode, and weighted mode. Among them, IVW is the primary method.
