Association of lipoprotein lipase genetic risk score with cardiometabolic risk indicators in a healthy Qatari population using the Qatar Biobank data.

Abstract excerpt

Genetic variations within the Lipoprotein Lipase (LPL) gene have been shown to influence the risk of cardiometabolic diseases. However, their associations with cardiometabolic disease-related markers remain underexplored in Arab Qatari populations. Hence, we examined the association between a genetic risk score (GRS) based on three LPL single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and cardiometabolic indicators in a...
