ADIPOQ and Insulin resistance: The effects of ASM/height2, ASM/weight and ASM/BMI on incident MASLD were partially mediated by adiponectin (percentage mediated [95% CI]: 6.3% [2.5%–11.1%]; 9.4% [5.0%–14.6%]; 9.5% [5.1%–15.5%]), uric acid (4.7% [1.6%–8.9%]; 5.3% [2.6%–8.5%]; 5.3% [2.4%–8.8%]), triglyceride (7.1% [3.9%–11.1%]; 7.5% [4.4%–10.9%]; 8.7% [5.3%–13.4%]) and homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (13.9% [9.5%–20.4%]; 15.0% [10.0%–20.2%]; 14.5% [9.9%–20.7%]).
