Interactions between the genetic risk score and dietary factors, specifically trans fats, were observed, indicating that the effects of trans fats on CHD risk are more pronounced in individuals with a higher genetic risk score.

Understanding the interaction between genetics and diet can help tailor dietary recommendations for individuals at higher genetic risk for CHD.
