Abstract
Summary of the research findings
Background & aims: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has witnessed more than 4.5 million deaths as of the time of writing. Whether nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) increases the risk for severe COVID-19 remains unclear. We sought to address this question using 2-sample Mendelian randomization (TSMR) analysis approaches in large cohorts.
