The role of liver fat in cardiometabolic diseases is highlighted by genome-wide association study of MRI-derived measures of body composition

2022-02-28

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background & Aims</h4> Obesity and associated morbidities, metabolic associated liver disease (MAFLD) included, constitute some of the largest public health threats worldwide. Body composition and related risk factors are known to be heritable and identification of their genetic determinants may aid in the development of better prevention and treatment strategies. Recently, large-scale whole-body MRI data has...
