BACKGROUND: Observational studies have indicated a link between autoimmune liver diseases (AILD) and chronic hepatitis B (CHB) through observational studies. The association between AILD and CHB remains indeterminate.
METHODS: A two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis was conducted to scrutinize the causal nexus between AILD and CHB utilizing summary statistics derived from extensive genome-wide association studies (GWASs) in European populations. The primary statistical methodology employed was the inverse variance-weighted (IVW) method to deduce the causal connection of AILD on CHB. This study incorporated primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), and autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) as subtypes of AILD. Additionally, we conducted a multivariable MR (MVMR) analysis to account for the potential confounding effects of smoking, alcohol consumption, body mass index (BMI), and some autoimmune diseases.
RESULTS: Our MR investigation encompassed a cohort of 725,816 individuals. The MR analysis revealed that genetically predicted PSC significantly correlated with a reduced risk of CHB (IVW OR = 0.857; 95%CI: 0.770-0.953, P = 0.005). Conversely, the reverse MR analysis suggested that genetic susceptibility to PSC might not modify the risk of CHB (IVW OR = 1.004; 95% CI: 0.958-1.053, P = 0.866). Genetically proxied PBC and AIH exhibited no discernible causal association with CHB in the MR analysis using the IVW method (P = 0.583; P = 0.425). The MVMR analysis still indicated a decreased risk of CHB associated with PSC (OR = 0.853, P = 0.003).
CONCLUSION: Our study elucidates a causal relationship between PSC and a diminished risk of CHB.
