Objectives Observational studies on associations between various diseases and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are often limited by confounding and reverse causation. We aimed to assess potential causal relationships between a wide range of diseases and IBD, including Crohn’s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). Methods We performed a comprehensive bidirectional Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis of 104 common diseases...

Oceanic mesoscale eddies are prevalent throughout the global ocean, playing a critical role in material and energy transport while significantly influencing climate change. Accurate characterization of their three-dimensional structures and movement is essential for a quantitative analysis of their transport processes. Traditional eddy detection algorithms have lower successful detection rate and with more limitations, so they...
