A MUC13 Variant Enhances Intestinal Ferric Iron Absorption in Unexplained Hyperferritinemia
ABSTRACT Background & Aims Hyperferritinemia frequently remains unexplained despite comprehensive evaluation. We conducted a sequencing‐based exome association study to identify genetic variants associated with plasma ferritin levels in patients with unexplained hyperferritinemia.

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) that were previously conducted in European and Asian cohorts have identified numerous genetic risk factors for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and its precursors and risk factors. A polygenic risk score (PRS) composed of these key SNPs for HCC may be useful for risk stratification in ...
