ALT [OR = 1.078, (95% CI: 1.020 - 1.139), P = 0.007], platelets [OR = 1.013, (95% CI: 1.001 - 1.025), P = 0.040], CK-18 fragments [OR = 1.012, (95% CI: 1.003 - 1.021), P = 0.011], and TG [OR = 1.006, (95% CI: 1.001 - 1.012), P = 0.019] were independent variables in patients with NASH (Table 3). Here, GPT is linked to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis.
