The expression levels of IL‐1β, IL‐6, and TNF‐α were markedly higher in the NAFLD group (2‐fold, 2.1‐fold, and 2.18‐fold, respectively) than in the control group (p = 0.03, 0.01, and 0.07, respectively; Figure 4A–C). This evidence concerns the gene TNF and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease.
