Mendelian randomization findings indicate gut microbiota are causally linked to immune thrombocytopenia.
Key taxa like methanogens and protective groups such as Bacteroidales S24-7 drive results on ITP susceptibility.
Mendelian-randomisation studies analyzed over 600,000 participants with strong associations to ITP outcomes.
Implication suggests potential for targeted treatments focusing on gut microbiota changes and cytokine interactions.
