<h4>Background & aims</h4> An observational association between nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and kidney function impairment has been reported. A genetic variant linked to an increased risk of NAFLD, the G allele of rs738409, has been reported to be associated with a reduction in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). <h4>Approach & Results</h4> In this Mendelian randomization (MR) study, we first...
