As presented in Table 3, with increasing severity of liver steatosis, there were statistically significant increases in mean BMI (r = 0.52, P = 0.001), serum TG (r = 0.47, P = 0.026), ALT (r = 0.61, P < 0.001), AST (r = 0.52, P < 0.001), and FBS (r = 0.28, P = 0.041), and there was a statistically significant decrease in mean HDL-C (r = 0.38, P = 0.011). This evidence concerns the gene GPT and Hepatic steatosis.
