These results are in line with the recent study of Maltais et al.,33 who reported that 4 in 10 patients with familial chylomicronemia syndrome and almost 3 in 4 patients with multifactorial chylomicronemia syndrome (2 disorders of impaired LPL function) met the criteria of NAFLD independently of their BMI. This evidence concerns the gene LPL and familial chylomicronemia syndrome.
