Genome‐Wide Association Study of Liver Fat: The Multiethnic Cohort Adiposity Phenotype Study

The global rise in fatty liver is a major public health problem. Thus, it is critical to identify both global and population‐specific genetic variants associated with liver fat. We conducted a genome‐wide association study (GWAS) of percent liver fat and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) asse...
