Causal association of immune cells and endometritis: a Mendelian randomization study.

ABSTRACT: Research exploring the link between immune cell profiles and the development of endometritis remains scant. This gap necessitates further study to decode the complex interrelations influencing this condition. In this analysis, we leveraged two-sample Mendelian randomization to examine the causal ties between the phenotypes of immune cells and the incidence of endometritis. Our evaluation hinged on data from 3757 participants hailing from Sardinia, focusing on a diverse array of 731 immune phenotypes, and cross-referenced with endometritis data sourced from the UK Biobank. To ensure rigor, we performed sensitivity analyses, utilized MR-Egger and MR-Presso to check for pleiotropy, and applied Cochran's Q test for assessing the heterogeneity of our findings. Our investigation identified numer
