The main method for examining causality is inverse variance weighting (IVW).<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n \n IVW results confirmed that\n Anaerotruncus<\/jats:italic>\n (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.0249),\n Intestinimonas<\/jats:italic>\n (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.0237),\n Lachnoclostridium<\/jats:italic>\n (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.0245),\n Lachnospiraceae NC2004 group<\/jats:italic>\n (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.0083),\n Olsenella<\/jats:italic>\n (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.0163), and\n Peptococcus<\/jats:italic>\n (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.0472) were protective factors for NAFLD, and\n Ruminococcus 1<\/jats:italic>\n (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.0120) was detrimental for NAFLD. The higher abundance of three genera,\n Lachnospira<\/jats:italic>\n (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.0388),\n Desulfovibrio<\/jats:italic>\n (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.0252), and\n Ruminococcus torques group<\/jats:italic>\n (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.0364), was correlated with a lower risk of ALD, while\n Ruminococcaceae UCG 002<\/jats:italic>\n level was associated with a higher risk of ALD (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.0371). The\n Alistipes<\/jats:italic>\n (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.0069) and\n Ruminococcaceae NK4A214 group<\/jats:italic>\n (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.0195) were related to a higher risk of viral hepatitis. Besides, alanine (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.0076) and phenyllactate (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.0100) were found to be negatively correlated with NAFLD, while stachydrine (O\n p<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.0244) was found to be positively associated with NAFLD. The phenylacetate (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.0353) and ursodeoxycholate (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.0144) had a protective effect on ALD, while the threonate (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.0370) exerted a detrimental influence on ALD. The IVW estimates of alanine (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.0408) and cholate (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.0293) showed their suggestive harmful effects against viral hepatitis, while threonate (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.0401) displayed its suggestive protective effect against viral hepatitis.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n In conclusion, our research supported
