Shared Genetic Links Between Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease and Coronary Artery Disease
Our results show that there are significant gene overlaps and pleiotropic genes between NAFLD and CAD and point out their common molecular mechanisms. These findings provide evidence for the common etiology between them and also help to better understand the pleiotropic nature between NAFLD and CAD, which may be of guiding significance for future treatment strategies.
