ADIPOQ and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease: Adiponectin levels were correlated with serum FFAs (rho = −0.141; p = 0.043), Adipo-IR (rho = −0.155; p = 0.026), ALT levels (rho = −0.411; p < 0.0001), severity of steatosis (rho = 0.200; p = 0.033), necroinflammation (rho = −0.297; p = 0.001), NAFLD activity score (rho = −280; p = 0.003), and fibrosis stage (rho = −0.297, p = 0.001), and was inversely correlated with fasting insulin (rho = −0.156, p = 0.002).
