Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The 167K allele in the TM6SF2 gene has been suggested to protect against cardiovascular disease at the cost of developing nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in adults. METHODS: We performed a cross-sectional study in a population sample of 462 Caucasian children aged 6-9 y, genotyped the polymorphism using HumanCoreExome BeadChip, and assessed several cardiometabolic risk factors. RESULTS: The 51 (11%)...
