Comparing clinical characteristics based on NAFLD status (Table 1), we found that both lean and obese NAFLD patients had higher BMI, larger waist circumference, higher systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and elevated serum levels of alanine aminotransferase, γ-glutamyl transpeptidase, triglyceride, uric acid, and fasting glucose, but lower serum HDL-cholesterol levels than corresponding controls. The gene discussed is GPT; the disease is metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease.
