On the other hand, the presence of the C/C genotype in STAT6 rs167769 and the carrier state of the C allele in YAP1 rs11225163 were inversely associated with HCC in NASH patients (OR = 0.015, p < 0.001) and (OR = 0.047, p = 0.004), respectively. Here, STAT6 is linked to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis.
