Abstract The correlation between diverticular disease of the intestine and cirrhosis is well-established, however, the presence of a genetic causal link between the two conditions remains uncertain. The study employed a two-sample Mendelian randomization approach utilizing the most recent genome-wide association study (GWAS) data to investigate the correlation between diverticulosis and liver cirrhosis. The primary analysis was conducted using the Inverse Variance Weighted (IVW) method, and was further corroborated by an array of statistical techniques including MR-Egger, Weighted Median, Weighted Mode, cML-MA, ConMix, MR-RAPS, and DIVW to ensure robustness and reliability of the findings.Heterogeneity was evaluated using Cochran’s Q test, horizontal pleiotropy was assessed through MR-Egger regression, and leave-one-out analyses were performed to validate the causal relationships. The IVW method found that diverticular disease significantly reduces the risk of cirrhosis (OR = 0.849, 95% CI: 0.743–0.971, P = 0.016). All models had P-values |
