Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Interindividual variability in metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) onset and its progressive inflammatory stage, metabolic dysfunction–associated steatohepatitis (MASH), reflects a complex interplay between metabolic burden and inherited susceptibility. We investigated the combined impact of genetic variants in the glucokinase regulatory protein gene (GCKR) and...
