Association between leptin and NAFLD: A Two-Sample Mendelian randomization study
2022-10-13
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) etiology involves a complex interaction of genetic and environmental factors. Previous observational studies have suggested that increased leptin levels may be associated with a low risk of developing NAFLD, but the causal relationship remains unclear. Due to advances in genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and the discovery of Mendelian randomizatio...
