Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The genetic polymorphism of haptoglobin (HP) has been associated with cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. We hypothesized that the HP polymorphism could affect the incidence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). METHODS: This cross sectional case-control analysis included 337 Japanese participants in a health screening program. Fatty liver disease (FLD) was diagnosed by ultrasonography...
