MYC and steatosis: However, the MYC expression was negatively related to BMI (r = −0.609, p < 0.001), waist (r =− 0.494, p < 0.001), steatosis (r = −0.609, p < 0.001), triglycerides (r = −0.324, p = 0.017), fasting glucose (r =− 0.303, p = 0.022), and transaminase including aspartate transaminase (r =− 0.376, p = 0.003) and alanine transaminase (r =− 0.610, p < 0.001).
