Objective The observational association between blood metabolites and asthma has been extensively studied. However, it is still unclear whether this association is causal. In this study, we aimed to investigate the causal relationship between blood metabolites and asthma using a bidirectional Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. Additionally, we aimed to explore the potential mechanisms underlying this relationship.
