Apart from exhibiting higher weight and BMI in NL and SS groups than the NW group, we found enhanced values of the homeostatic model assessment method for insulin resistance (HOMA1-IR), glucose, insulin, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) in the SS and NASH groups compared to the NW cohort. Here, INS is linked to Insulin resistance.
