As for the node degree, six targets were highly correlated with the pathological process of NAFLD, including INS (insulin, degree = 453), IL6 (interleukin‐6, degree = 400), AKT1 (RAC‐alpha serine/threonine‐protein kinase, degree = 382), ALB (albumin, degree = 375), TP53 (tumour protein p53, degree = 349) and TNF (tumour necrosis factor, degree =339). The gene discussed is ALB; the disease is metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease.
