This study aimed to investigate a genetic variant within a specific gene associated with myocardial infarction (MI) among patients with NAFLD. We included 57,205 participants from a Korean genome and epidemiology study. The baseline population consisted of 45,400 individuals, with 11,805 identified as patients with NAFLD. Genome-wide association studies were conducted for three groups: the entire sample, the healthy population, and patients with NAFLD. We defined the p-value &lt; 1 \u00d7 10\u22125 as the nominal significance and the p-value &lt; 5 \u00d7 10\u22122 as statistically significant for the gene-by-nutrient interaction. Among the significant single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), the lead SNP of each locus was further analyzed. In this cross-sectional study, a total of 1529 participants (2.8%) had experienced MI. Multivariable logistic regression was performed to evaluate the association of 102 SNPs across nine loci. Nine SNPs (rs11891202, rs2278549, rs13146480, rs17293047, rs184257317, rs183081683, rs1887427, rs146939423, and rs76662689) demonstrated an association with MI in the group with NAFLD Notably, the MI-associated SNP, rs134146480, located within the SORCS2 gene, known for its role in secreting insulin in islet cells, showed the most significant association with MI (p-value = 2.55 \u00d7 10\u22127). Our study identifies candidate genetic polymorphisms associated with NAFLD-related MI. These findings may serve as valuable indicators for estimating MI risk and for conducting future investigations into the underlying mechanisms of NAFLD-related MI.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/nu16050602","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,22]],"date-time":"2024-02-22T11:28:47Z","timestamp":1708601327000},"page":"602","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Genetic Variants Linked to Myocardial Infarction in Individuals with Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease and Their Potential Interaction with Dietary Patterns"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6330-9257","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sung-Bum","family":"Lee","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Family Medicine, Soonchunhyang University Bucheon Hospital, Bucheon 22972, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ja-Eun","family":"Choi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"R&D Division, Theragen Health Co., Ltd., Seongnam-si 13493, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3137-4609","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kyung-Won","family":"Hong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"R&D Division, Theragen Health Co., Ltd., Seongnam-si 13493, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3411-0676","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Dong-Hyuk","family":"Jung","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Family Medicine, Yongin Severance Hospital, Yongin-si 16995, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"17","DOI":"10.7570\/jomes22021","article-title":"Recent epidemiology and risk factors of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease","volume":"31","author":"Huh","year":"2022","journal-title":"J.
