GPT and Obesity: The Mann-Whitney U test also demonstrated a significant association between BMI and fasting plasma glucose level, low-density lipoprotein (LDL), triglycerides, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), uric acid, platelet count, and lymphocyte count (all p values<0.005). Despite the poor correlation with BMI, SUA levels emerged as a potential obesity predictor, with a 4.1 mg/dl cutoff value, exhibiting 50% sensitivity and 34% specificity (p<0.001; area under the curve, or AUC, 0.67; 95% CI 0.65-0.70).
