Abstract

Summary of the research findings

Background & aims: Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) is the most common and high-risk liver disorder during pregnancy, with varying prevalence across populations. Our understanding of the mechanisms underlying ICP and population-level differences remains limited. This study delves into the genetic etiology of ICP in East Asians, drawing comparisons with Europeans to comprehend ICP etiology in the context of genetic background and evolution.
