Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a highly heterogeneous metabolic trait, with a higher prevalence in East Asians. Despite extensive genetic studies focusing mainly on Europeans, how genetic risk for T2D is distributed across biological pathways in East Asians in comparison with Europeans remains incompletely understood. Here,...
BACKGROUND
Hepatic steatosis is a highly prevalent metabolic condition and a major contributor to chronic liver disease, particularly in Asian populations. This study was conducted to identify genetic variants associated with the severity of ultrasound-defined hepatic steatosis in a Taiwanese Han population and evaluat...
Background Blood lipids are heritable risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD), a leading cause of mortality worldwide. However, the genetic architecture of lipid traits and the performance of polygenic risk scores (PRSs) remain underexplored in East Asian (EAS) populations, including Taiwanese Han individuals. Me...
