Similar results were reported in a meta‐analysis of two large population cohort studies—110 761 individuals from Copenhagen and 334 691 individuals from the UK Biobank—where the authors applied a genetic risk score for steatosis ranging from 0 to 6 and also included PNPLA3 rs738409 C > G variant, to predict the development of cirrhosis [64]. Here, PNPLA3 is linked to steatosis.
