Comparing to the previously identified suggestive or significant NAFLD GWAS loci,4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 our SNPs, rs73004951 and rs2294915, replicated the previous NAFLD GWAS loci, TM6SF2 and PNPLA3 (Table S1). Here, PNPLA3 is linked to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease.
