Genome-Wide Association Study of Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease Identifies Association with Apolipoprotein E

2021-05-07

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background & Aims</h4> Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified several risk loci for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Previous studies have largely relied on small sample sizes and have assessed quantitative traits. We performed a case-control GWAS in the UK Biobank using recorded diagnosis of NAFLD based on diagnostic codes recommended in recent consensus guidelines. <h4>Approach & Re...
