Fatty liver linked to colon polyp genes? new study investigates
NCT ID NCT07463287
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at the genes in colon polyps from people with MASH (a type of fatty liver disease) compared to those without fatty liver. Researchers want to find specific gene patterns that might signal higher risk. About 100 adults already scheduled for polyp removal will donate a small piece of tissue and blood for analysis, with follow-ups every six months.
