Instead, FPG, HOMA-IR, BP, LDL-C, triglycerides (TG), BMI, alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), γ-glutamyl transpeptidase (γ-GT), uric acid (UA) and HbA1c were all significantly higher in the cohorts of the NAFLD group, and levels of HDL-C were significantly lower in the NAFLD group. Here, GPT is linked to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease.
