Compared with the participants of “NAFLD alone”, “overlapping FLD” patients were older and had a higher percentage of males, DM, hypertension history, and hyperlipidemia history, higher levels of body mass index (BMI), body fat, waist circumference (WC), glucose, HbA1C, triglyceride, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), gamma‐glutamyl transferase (GGT), FLI, NFS, uric acid, and the percentage of carotid plaques, but lower levels of cholesterol, HDL, and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). This evidence concerns the gene GPT and hyperlipidemia.
