Abstract excerpt
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) shares several risk factors with atherosclerosis, as it is associated with components of the metabolic syndrome. However, genetic variations have also been linked to the risk of NAFLD, such as adiponutrin/patatin-like phospholipase domain-containing the protein 3 (PNPLA3) rs738409 polymorphism.
