To further analyze the relationship between NAFLD and GH levels, subjects with serum GH levels <0.07 ng/mL were defined as the lower GH group and those with serum GH levels ≥0.07 ng/mL were defined as the higher GH group (0.07 ng/mL was the median GH concentration). Here, GH1 is linked to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease.
